BELGRADE - The National Bank of Serbia (NBS) forecasts GDP growth to accelerate to around 3.5 pct in 2018 and 2019, NBS Governor Jorgovanka Tabakovic said on Wednesday.

On this basis as well, we expect positive effects on further growth in our exports, which rose by 13.5 pct last year," she told a press conference.
