Abstract

After four quarters of strong fall, GDP declined by "only" 0,1 % in the second quarter of 2009, showing the first sign of stabilization since the beginning of the crisis. The recession is due to both a decline of internal demand (mainly private consumption and productive investment) and of exports. The unemployment rate increased by more than two points, reaching 9,3 % in the second quarter of 2009. Quarterly growth should turn positive in the third quarter of 2009, thanks to a rebound of investment and a positive contribution of inventories. But as private agents would keep lowering their indebtedness, this would hamper the growth of private demand. With GDP growing only by 0,8 % in 2010, the standard of living per capita would remain largely below the pre-crisis level.
