• Current account improved in 2012 due to:
– improvement in the services balance;
– mitigated by deterioration in the trade, current transfers and
income balances.
• Further decline in net capital transfers.
• Increase in external financing moderated due to:
– substantial smaller increase in loans and credits balance.

Expected developments in 2013Expected developments in 2013
• Real GDP of Curaçao is expected to contract by
0.7% in 2013.
• The economic contraction is due to a decline in
domestic demand, mitigated by an increase in net
foreign demand.
• Inflation will decelerate to 3.0%, owing largely to a
projected decline in international oil and food
prices.

• Sint Maarten’s GDP is estimated to expand by
1.1% in 2013, a deceleration compared to the real
growth of 1.5% in 2012.
• The economic slowdown is largely attributable to
weakened activities in the restaurants & hotels and
the wholesale and retail trade sectors.
• Inflation will ease to 3.0%, reflecting mainly lower
projected international oil and food prices.

Expected developments in 2014Expected developments in 2014
• The economy of Sint Maarten is projected to grow
by 1.0% in 2014, driven mainly by the tourism,
transportation, and marine trade sectors.
• Growth in tourism will stem primarily from more
stay-over tourism as cruise tourism is projected to
remain flat.
• Inflation will ease further to reach 2.7% supported
by the projected decline in international oil and
food prices. An increase in excises on tobacco and
alcohol will contribute to inflationary pressures.
