💨 Abstract

The Hungarian government's 2026 budget plans could be at risk due to overly optimistic economic growth assumptions, warns the head of budget watchdog Fiscal Council. The government forecasts 4.1% growth for 2023, higher than economists' and IMF projections. However, S&P Global projects 2.5% growth, and the economy is currently in stagflation.
