Afghanistan grows 12-pct, inflation 6-pct: IMF

Feb 05, 2013 (LBO) - Afghanistan's economy is estimated to have grown at a blistering 12 percent rate in 2012 helped by lower inflation of 6 percent and a good harvest, the International Monetary Fund said. Afghanistan was expected to submit a value added tax law to parliament and also fix Kabul Bank.

The IMF has an extended credit facility (ECF) program in Afghanistan and a team had conducted a combined second and third review from January 19 to February 02.

"Discussions focused on maintaining macroeconomic stability and structural reform momentum in 2013," team leader Paul Ross said in a statement.
