Book Description
This Selected Issues paper and Statistical Appendix for the Kingdom of the Netherlands—Aruba underlies long-term growth and fiscal sustainability. Aruba’s fiscal position has been deteriorating since the turn of the century, and the medium-term fiscal sustainability analysis shows a continuous weakening ahead of population aging. An upfront and ambitious fiscal consolidation, significantly lowering the deficit and reducing the level of public debt, seems necessary. On the pension front, measures could include increasing the mandatory retirement age and expanding the contribution base.

The paper has looked into issues pertaining to the development and prospects of the Antillean offshore sector.

Book Description
This 2013 Article IV Consultation highlights that economic output in Aruba remains 12 percent below its pre-crisis level, with recovery slower than others in the Caribbean region. The non-oil current account (CA) balance, which mostly reflects developments in the tourism sector, has improved since mid-2000 reaching a balanced position in 2012. The overall CA balance, however, after being in surplus for years, showed volatilities in recent years reflecting oil-sector developments. In 2012, it recorded a surplus of 5 percent of GDP. In 2013, real output is projected to grow by 11⁄4 percent. Robust tourism growth and some pickup in consumption from projected deflation will support the subdued near-term recovery.
