MOSCOW, Sep 20 (PRIME) -- The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) has raised its forecast for Russia’s gross domestic product (GDP) real growth in 2017 to 2% from 1.4% expected earlier, OECD said on Wednesday.
The GDP growth forecast for 2018 was raised to 2.1% from 1.6%.
“Russia is rebounding from a recession with higher oil prices and lower interest rates providing a near-term boost to growth, which is projected at around 2% in 2017 and 2018,” OECD said.
