Abstract: Paraguay's economic activity remains robust, bolstered by ongoing reforms and sound macroeconomic fundamentals. Inflation is within the central bank’s tolerance range, and both public debt and the external position are sustainable. While the outlook is favorable, it remains subject to elevated global risks and vulnerable to adverse weather shocks. The authorities have reaffirmed their strong commitment to the fiscal consolidation plan—an essential anchor of macroeconomic stability. Paraguay’s sovereign debt trades with one of the lowest risk spreads in the region.
