According to the World Bank, the GDP in Albania will grow 4.4% in 2021 and 3.7% in 2022; in Bosnia-Herzegovina 2.8% this year and 3.5% next year, in Montenegro 7.1% in 2021 and 4.5% in 2022, in North Macedonia 3.6% and 3.5% respectively, n Kosovo 4.0% and 4,5% and in Serbia 5.0% in 2021 and 3.7% next year. "Activity in tourism-dependent economies, particularly Albania and Montenegro, will continue to be hampered by international travel restrictions," the report said.
