Hungary's GDP fell a seasonally- and workday-adjusted 5.4% year-on-year in Q1-Q3. During the same period, economies in the eurozone contracted 7.5% on average.
Before the coronavirus crisis, Hungary's government had set a policy goal to keep GDP growth two percentage points over that in eurozone countries.
In a regional comparison, GDP in the Czech Republic fell 5.9% in Q1-Q3 and declined by 2.6% in Poland and 6.1% in Slovakia.
Producing journalism that is worthy of the name is a costly business. For over 30 years, the publishers, editors and reporters of the Budapest Business Journal have striven to bring you business news that works, information that you can trust, that is factual, accurate and presented without fear or favor.Newspaper organizations across the globe have struggled to find a business model that allows them to continue to excel, without compromising their ability to perform. Most recently, some have experimented with the idea of involving their most important stakeholders, their readers.
