据道琼斯6月8日消息,国际货币基金组织(IMF)表示,受低油价的冲击,今年阿联酋财政将出现赤字,这也将是该国自2009年以来首次出现财政赤字,不过该国建立的储备金将帮助其渡过困境。IMF表示:“受油价大幅下挫的影响,今年阿联酋将出现自2009年以来首个财政赤字年,预计的赤字达到该国GDP的2.3%。“2014年阿联酋财政盈余为5%。

UAE Seen Posting First Fiscal Deficit Since 2009 Due to Oil Prices, IMF Says
[Dow Jones] The United Arab Emirates is projected to post its first fiscal deficit since 2009, as lower oil prices are hurting income, though its reserves will help cushion the blow, says the International Monetary Fund. "With the decline in oil prices, the fiscal balance this year is projected to turn negative for the first time since 2009 to record a deficit of 2.3 percent of GDP," the IMF says. Last year, the country posted a surplus of 5%.
