A moderate recovery has set in, supported by an increasing number of new firms and rising employment. Fiscal deficits are contained and some efforts are underway to assess and better address test banking sector weaknesses. However, the challenges of restoring financial stability, creating fiscal space, and achieving sustainable growth remain considerable.
Context: A subdued recovery has started to settle in. However, downside risks persist. San Marino's economy remains in transition following the implosion of its offshore banking model in the aftermath of the global crisis, resulting in the loss of a third of output.
