Serbia’s Prime Minister Miloš Vučević chaired a session of the Council for Coordination of Activities and Measures for GDP Growth, where the economic and industrial landscape was reviewed. According to the press service, while data for the first quarter of this year are still being processed, the GDP Council reported growth in several sectors. These include the food industry, agriculture, tourism—reflected in increased foreign tourist arrivals and overnight stays—and the banking sector, particularly in credit activity for both individuals and businesses.
It was also noted that the Office for Rapid Resolution of Economic Problems had begun its work successfully. Regarding foreign direct investments, it was emphasized that these remain stable, with a significant highlight being the launch of hybrid car production at the “Stelantis” factory in Kragujevac. This development is expected to boost demand for highly skilled workers in the area.
Prime Minister Vučević urged the GDP Council members to continue their dedicated work despite the current political and social challenges, contributing to the country’s continued progress and development.
