Belgium - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
This modern, open, and private-enterprise-based economy has capitalized
on its central geographic location, highly developed transport network, and
diversified industrial and commercial base. Industry is concentrated mainly in
the more heavily-populated region of Flanders in the north. With few natural
resources, Belgium imports substantial quantities of raw materials and exports
a large volume of manufactures, making its economy vulnerable to volatility in
world markets. Roughly three-quarters of Belgium's trade is with other EU
countries, and Belgium has benefited most from its proximity to Germany. In
2011 Belgian GDP grew by 2.0%, the unemployment rate decreased slightly to 7.7%
from 8.3% the previous year, and the government reduced the budget deficit from
a peak of 6% of GDP in 2009 to 4.2% in 2011. Despite the relative improvement
in Belgium's budget deficit, public debt hovers near 100% of GDP, a factor that
has contributed to investor perceptions that the country is increasingly
vulnerable to spillover from the euro-zone crisis. Belgian banks were severely
affected by the international financial crisis in 2008 with three major banks
receiving capital injections from the government, and the nationalization of
the Belgian arm of a Franco-Belgian bank. An ageing population and rising
social expenditures are mid- to long-term challenges to public finances.
