Republic of Azerbaijan: 2023 Article IV Consultation-Press Release; and Staff Report, (USA: International Monetary Fund, 2024) accessed November 21, 2024

Summary

Growth is moderating following a strong post-pandemic rebound, and inflation is easing. The near-term challenge is to resume fiscal consolidation following a temporary easing, and to ensure that inflation—which has recently returned to the target band—does not reignite amid external risks and domestic pressures. In the medium to long term, Azerbaijan’s biggest challenge is to reduce dependence on the hydrocarbon sector and advance private sector-led economic diversification.
