4. Indonesia : 2014 Article IV consultation ; staff report, press release, and statement by the Executive Director for Indonesia
abstractKEY ISSUES Context: Indonesia has strengthened policy and reserve buffers since mid 2013, in the face of global headwinds from the commodity down-cycle and episodes of volatility affecting emerging market economies. Policies have aimed at containing external and inflation pressures, helping to preserve macroeconomic and financial stability. With growth slowing, the new government is keen to jump start supply-side reforms aimed at raising potential growth while strengthening the external position. Upfront actions to curb fuel subsidies have opened fiscal space to support infrastructure spending. Near-term outlook: After slowing in 2014, growth is projected to tick up to 5.2 percent in 2015, factoring in an anticipated jump in public investment in infrastructure. Inflation has temporarily risen on earlier fuel price increases, but is expected to return to within the target band by year end. Notwithstanding soft commodity prices, the current account deficit is projected to narrow further in 2015. Risks to the outlook arise mainly from a deeper•than-expected slowdown in emerging market trading partners and surges in global financial market volatility, which could exacerbate strains on the domestic banking and corporate sectors. Policy mix: The current policy mix aims at improving growth potential while consolidating recent stability gains and containing vulnerabilities. Fiscal policy should be geared towards securing space for more social and capital spending, underpinned by a broad-based strategy for increasing nonoil tax revenues, while pursuing moderate deficit reduction over the medium term. Monetary policy needs to remain focused on anchoring inflation expectations and facilitating external adjustment, supported by continued exchange rate and bond yield flexibility. Bank funding pressures, while showing signs of easing, will need to be managed through stronger policy coordination and improved market functionality. Financial stability is expected to be preserved through enhanced risk assessment and effective prudential measures, anchored by a strong crisis management framework. Structural reforms should be aimed at easing supply bottlenecks and improving the investment climate in order to create new jobs, bolster medium-term growth prospects, and strengthen the external position

5. Malaysia : 2014 Article IV consultation ; staff report, press release, and statement by the Executive Director for Malaysia
abstractThis 2014 Article IV Consultation highlights that Malaysia’s well-diversified economy continued to perform well in 2014. Growth accelerated to 5.9 percent, aided by robust domestic private demand and a recovery in exports. Lower energy costs helped contain inflation to 3.1 percent despite the removal of fuel subsidies and increase in electricity tariffs. Growth is expected to moderate to 4.8 percent in 2015. Strong investment momentum should help offset headwinds from continued fiscal consolidation. Lower energy prices will be a drag on oil and gas production but should provide a boost to the large non-oil sector

6. Philippines : 2015 Article IV consultation ; press release, staff report, and statement by the Executive Director for the Philippines
abstractContext: The Philippine economy is expected to grow in line with potential, at around 6½ percent per annum. Inflation is projected to remain within the BSP’s target band (3±1 percent). The external position is strong and fiscal policy is prudent, with a declining public debt ratio. Its small, bank-centric financial system has strong buffers, and risks associated with bank-corporate-real estate linkages are currently contained. Poor infrastructure has constrained private investment and job creation. Public investment continues to be low due to weak implementation capacity despite an increase in the investment budget and progress on fiscal transparency. Investment in human capital has been raised but needs to be stepped up. Financial development and inclusion, as well as structural reforms to foster competition and diversification, are essential for inclusive growth. Risks: Tilted to the downside; tighter global financial conditions and a surge in financial volatility leading to sharp capital outflows; continuing weak budget execution; and severe El Niño conditions

7. Myanmar : 2015 Article IV consultation ; press release, staff report, and statement by the Executive Director for Myanmar
abstractThis 2015 Article IV Consultation highlights that Myanmar's economic growth remains strong, but macroeconomic imbalances have increased significantly over the past year. Real GDP growth for FY2014/15 (April-March) is estimated to have reached 8.5 percent. The fiscal deficit increased to 3 percent of GDP in FY2014/15, while credit to the private sector continued to grow strongly at 35 percent (year over year) in March, albeit lower than in FY2013/14. The current account deficit widened to more than 6 percent of GDP, largely reflecting a rapidly rising trade deficit. The Myanmar economy is set for strong growth in 2015 amid signs of overheating. The economy is expected to grow by 8.5 percent, reflecting strong growth momentum and expansionary macroeconomic policies

8. Kiribati : 2015 Article IV consultation ; press release, and staff report
abstractKEY ISSUES Context. Donor-financed large infrastructure projects, increased public spending, and a pick-up in credit to households have boosted real GDP growth to close to 4 percent in 2014 and to about 3 percent in 2015. Inflation remains low, underpinned by lower food and commodity prices. Steps are being taken to reduce the many hurdles to private growth that Kiribati faces, among which are high transportation and communication costs and an increasing impact of climate change. Fiscal policy. The fiscal outlook has improved, but further efforts are needed to ensure sustainability. The recurrent balance was in large surplus in 2014 and is expected to remain positive in 2015, reflecting high revenue from license fees, and notwithstanding a large increase in expenditures. But under the historic pace of spending the sovereign wealth fund (Revenue Equalization Reserve Fund-RERF) would be depleted in about 20 years. Ensuring sustainability requires containing nominal expenditure growth to around 1 1\2 per annum over the next five years (after accommodating climate-change-related costs), with transparent and symmetric transfers and withdrawals from the RERF around this path. Structural reforms. There is a consensus among donors that significant progress has been achieved. The State-Owned Enterprise (SOE) Reform Act is being implemented in a satisfactory way, as illustrated by the recent successful privatization of the telecommunication company. Key outstanding issues include further reforming the energy and copra sectors and improving the investment climate
