Economic Outlook
- Spain has a nominal GDP of €1,081 bn, equal to €23,309 per capita, with a population of 46.4m. Spain has pulled out strongly since 2013-2014 from its negative growth rate and is currently enjoying one of the higher GDP growth rates.
- Inflation in 2015 reached -0.5%, yet is expected to reach positive inflation by 2017, with 1%.
- Spain has one of the highest budget deficits in Europe, in part still recovering from bailing out Spanish banks in 2012. It has been hesitant to implement cutbacks, not wanting to halt its economic recovery.
- Overall the economic outlook is positive and promising, though structural inefficiencies remain inherent. Economic reviews must be made to ensure the sustainability of its growth, and in order to continue carrying its substantially large dependent population.

- Private out-of-pocket spending has also been increasing, reaching 78% in 2015 and expected to continue rising gradually.
