2013年度澳门经济运行情况观察

Abstract:This article mainly analyses Macau’s macro-economic environment and development of its principal industries in 2013，and attempts to forecast the macro-economic situation of the following year.Although the global economy became uncertain as a result of a possible early end to the quantitative easing programme in the US，the economic recovery of the US remained slow，while the recession in the EU had reached its bottom. Macau’s economic growth was steady in 2013，and is expected to have a 10% GDP growth for the entire year （GDP figures for the 4th quarter and the entire year of 2013 are due to be published after mid-March）.Looking ahead to 2014，the economy of Macau should not experience too many changes. It is expected that a steady development of the gaming and tourism sectors would lead a stable and sustained development of other sectors，although inflation and conflicts between the supply and demand of human resources would prevail. By construction of a model which is based on past economic performance figures，it is expected that，in conservative terms，that the GDP would grow by 10% in 2014.
