The Icelandic economy will grow at a slow pace in coming years, according to a new economic forecast from Landsbankinn Economic Research. Gross domestic product (GDP) contracted by 1.0% last year, largely due to a negative contribution from foreign trade, but this year the outlook is for 1,5% growth in GDP. Strong private consumption and increased exports appear to have vitalised the economy this year; however, various forces are restraining growth and will continue to cool the system in the years ahead.
