摘要：The third quarter sustained the robust performance of the Bulgarian economy and
GDP growth amounted to 5.8%. Over the July-September period, the country¡¯s employment
stepped up by 91.5 thousand, going 3.1% up on a year earlier. The unemployment
rate has held steady at around 11% for a third quarter in a row, running not
only well below preliminary estimates (11.3%)1, but also hitting a record low ever since
the NSI started conducting labour force surveys. Due to the improved balances on
services and current transfers, the current account surplus ran twice as high as expectations.
2004 inflation amounted to 3.98%. In addition, the currency board arrangement
remained stable, reinforcing the country¡¯s macroeconomic stability. The cash
surplus of the general government budget reached a record high of BGN 1.5 billion as
of end-November, accounting for 3.9% of the 2004 GDP forecasts.
