According to the updated assessment of the International Monetary Fund, the Fund predicts decline of foreign direct investment by 19% in Georgia in 2020. That means reduction of $ 241 million in investments.

According to the updated forecast, the International Monetary Fund predicts a decrease of $ 1.8 billion in foreign exchange inflows to Georgia in 2020.

• Reduction of import services - 60%;
