Azerbaijan GDP falls 3.8 pct y/y in 2016 - stats committee
19.01.2017 09:30
Azerbaijan's gross domestic product shrank by 3.8 percent year on year in 2016, the country's state statistics committee said on Wednesday.

The energy-rich former Soviet republic's economy has been hurt by weak global oil prices, which have also pressured its manat currency.

The Azeri Economy Ministry said in October the economy would contract by 2.8 percent in 2016, dramatically revising down its previous forecast, which was for gross domestic product to grow 1.8 percent last year.
