Zagreb, March 4 (CP) — The International Monetary Fund (IMF) mission head in Croatia Robert Feldman has said that although Croatia had made certain progress over the past year, it will be hard to reach the planned economic growth rate of six percent in the coming years.

The deficit of the current account of the payment balance is expected to stand at nine percent GDP, while the segment of Croatian foreign debt in GDP is expected to stand at 87.5 percent.
