Govt revises down 2023 growth forecast to 5.6% The government has revised down its 2023 growth forecast for the Cambodian economy to 5.6% from 6.6% it put forth in October last year, citing uncertainty about global economic growth tied to the Ukraine conflict, climate change and the COVID-19 crisis, according to Vongsey Vissoth, permanent secretary of state of the Ministry of Economy and Finance. The Ukraine crisis and climate change will put significant downward pressure on global economic, with the US, EU, China and other major buyers of Cambodia goods facing particularly grim prospects, he said. According to MEF's "Cambodia's Macroeconomic Situation at Glance 2022-2023" report, growth in export sectors, especially garment sector, is pegged to decelerate to 5.5% this year, due to weaker external demand, particularly from the EU market. It predicted 11.7% growth in the non-garment manufacturing sector driven by food and beverages for the domestic market as well as furniture, solar items, and electronic components for export. Wholesale-and-retail trade, construction, real estate, and agriculture are expected to grow by 6.5%, 1.1%, 1.2%, 1.1%, respectively. Tourism sector is expected to continue to recover with the growth of 32.7% as regional and international travel picks up, according to the report. (Source: Phnom Penh Post)

Public debt-to-GDP ratio at 34% at end-2022 Cambodia's public debt-to-GDP ratio came to 34% at the end of 2022, the lowest in ASEAN after Brunei which has no external debt, according to the Ministry of Economy and Finance (MEF). In a report issued at a public forum on macroeconomic management and 2023 budget law, the MEF put the Kingdom's end-2022 public debt at $9.97bn with $9.96bn from external sources and nearly $20mn from sovereign bond issuance. China represented the largest share of these external sources, at 40%, followed by other bilateral sources (22%), the Asian Development Bank (21%), the World Bank (9%), "old debt" (6%), and other multilateral sources (2%), the report said.

E-wallet accounts in Cambodia reach 17.9 million at end of 2022 The number of e-wallet accounts in Cambodia reached 17.9 million at the end of 2022, according to the National Bank of Cambodia (NBC)'s "Macroeconomic and Banking Sector Development 2022 and Outlook for 2023". The report noted that newer advanced technological solutions and upgrades have led to an increase in the efficiency of payment and settlement in both domestic and international transfers. NBC assistant governor and director-general Chea Serey said that fast-growing digital payment systems have facilitated the flow of goods and services transactions, adding the resulting changes were most evident during the COVID-19 lockdowns in 2021. ACLEDA Bank's senior executive vice-president and group chief operations officer So Phonnary said the digital transactions processed by the ACLEDA in 2021 amounted to KHR143.6tn or $35bn, which she said accounted for 34% market share.
