State Budget 2027: Finance Ministry expects sharp rise in Euribor rates and oil above 86 dollars
The government's macroeconomic forecast for the 2027 State Budget projects an increase in average 3-month market interest rates to 3.4% and an average Brent crude oil price of 86.1 dollars per barrel. These projections are part of a fiscal scenario that anticipates economic growth of 2.1% and a budget surplus of 0.2% in 2027.
