    I. OVERVIEW
    1.1. International Economic Developments
    The global survey indicators point to some deceleration in global activity in the third quarter of 2018/19. The Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) recorded during the quarter was below the level in 2017 and the first half of 2018, consistent with some deceleration in the global growth momentum. Across advanced economies, the all -industry survey indicator in the US market declined from rather high levels during the third quarter. PMIs also decreased in the United Kingdom and Japan due to weaker readings in March. In emerging market economies, the quarterly PMI picked up strongly in Brazil, while declining in India and Russia. The PMI remained unchanged in China in the third quarter, although it recorded a strong increase in March. Global inflation remained stable in February. Annual consumer price inflation in the Organization for Economic Co - operation and Development (OECD) countries remained unchanged in February at 2.1 percent, following a sequence of declines since the peak registered in October last year. Excluding food and energy prices, annual inflation in the OECD countries slowed marginally to 2.1 percent. Tight labor market conditions across major advanced economies have so far translated into only moderate wage increases, suggesting that the underlying inflation pressures remain subdued. In the United States, real GDP growth expanded at an annualized rate of 2.2 percent in the second quarter of 2018 /19 supported by the contributions from private consumption and non-residential fixed investment, despite the negative contributions of government spending and net exports. While overall GDP growth remains supported by strong fundamentals, economic activity is expected to decelerate in the third quarter of 2018/19. Annual headline inflation declined to 1.5 percent in February, 2019 due to a sharp deceleration in energy prices, while average hourly earnings remained strong. In the United Kingdom, growth of GDP slowed to 0.2 percent in the second quarter of 2018/19. Short-term indicators suggest continued subdued GDP growth in the third

2 Third Quarter 2018/19
National Bank of Ethiopia Quarterly Bulletin quarter of 2018/19, as elevated Brexit￾related uncertainty dampens consumption and investment. Annual CPI inflation continued to decline, falling to 1.8 percent in the first two months of 2019. This is well below the depreciation-induced peak at 3.0 percent seen one year earlier and reflects both the waning impact of earlier strong rises in import prices and rapid declines in energy prices. In Japan, economic activity slowed in early 2019, following a rebound towards the end of last year. Real GDP increased by 0.5 percent, quarter on quarter, in the second quarter of 2018/19, mainly supported by domestic demand, particularly non￾residential investment. However, high frequency indicators point to a slowdown in underlying momentum at the start of the year. Annual headline inflation declined to
0.2 percent in both January and February
2019, mostly reflecting the decline in energy price and strong fall in fresh food prices. Core inflation picked up slightly to 0.3 percent. In China, growth was stabilizing and the weakening in manufacturing sector was partly offset by resilience in services. During January and February 2019, industrial production further softened and fixed-asset investment growth recovered slightly, while growth in nominal retail sales remained robust. In Euro area, annual HICP inflation declined to 1.4 percent in March 2019 from 1.5 percent in February, despite higher energy price inflation and reflected lower food price inflation.
1.2. Macroeconomic Developments in
Ethiopia
A. Inflation
During the third quarter of 2018/19, headline inflation climbed to 3.1 percent from 0.3 percent in the preceding quarter and 2.7 percent last year same period. The rise in quarterly headline inflation rate was ascribed to 2.9 percentage point increase in non-food inflation and 2.7 percentage point food & non-alcoholic beverages inflation. The year-on-year increment in headline inflation was due to 1.0 percentage point rise in food & non- alcoholic beverages despite
0.3 percentage point decline in non-food
inflation. Consequently, food & non￾alcoholic beverages and non-food inflations contributed 1.5 and 1.6 percent respectively to the headline inflation registered during the review quarter. B. Monetary Developments At the end of third quarter of 2018/19, broad money supply (M2) reached Birr
832.0 billion, depicting 19.6 percent growth
over last year same quarter. This was wholly driven by 22.1 percent expansion of domestic credit against 23.8 percent contraction of net foreign assets (NFA). The increase in domestic credit resulted mainly from 18.3 percent upsurge in credit to non-central government despite 13.5 percent reduction in that of central government due to the government’s measure to raise CBE’s capital by issuing non-interest bearing bond. Likewise, reserve money amounted to Birr
177.8 billion indicating 9.6 percent growth
over last year same quarter owing to a 11.4 percent increase in currency in circulation and 5.3 percent rise in banks’ deposits at NBE.
C. Interest rate
In the third quarter of 2018/19, the average savings deposit and lending rates remained constant at 8.0 percent and
13.5 percent, respectively, while
weighted average time deposit rate slightly declined by 0.01 percentage points on annual basis. In contrast, weighted average yield on T-bills increased by 0.27 percentage point. Hence, considering the 11.1 percent inflation in March 2019, all deposit rates and T-bills yield remained negative in real terms whereas average real lending rate was positive. D. Financial Sector Developments

  1. Banks
    The number of banks operating in Ethiopia remained at 18, of which 16 were private and 2 state owned banks. These banks opened 274 new branches during the review period, raising the total number of bank branches to 5,389 of which 69.5 percent were that of private banks. Consequently, one branch on average serves 18,308.6 1 people. About 34.1 percent of the total bank branches were located in Addis Ababa. At the same time, the total capital of the banking system reached Birr 99 billion, of which, private banks accounted for 42.4 percent, while that of state owned banks, namely Commercial Bank of Ethiopia and 1 Total population is 98,665,000 as CSA estimation for 2018/19

4 Third Quarter 2018/19
National Bank of Ethiopia Quarterly Bulletin Development Bank of Ethiopia constituted
49.9 percent and 7.8 percent, respectively.
The banking sector disbursed Birr 37 billion in new loans during the review quarter indicating a 30.3 percent annual growth. Of the total new loans, public banks took a 33.5 percent share while that of private banks was
66.5 percent.
Of the total fresh loans, domestic trade was the largest beneficiary, accounting for 21.2 percent followed by industry (18.9 percent), international trade (17 percent), housing & construction (15.2 percent), agriculture (9.3 percent) and hotel & tourism (3.6 percent), the remaining balance being taken by other economic sectors. During the same period, the banking sector collected loans to the tune of Birr 27.7 billion which was about 4.8 percent higher than a year earlier. Of the total loan, 70.9 percent was collected by private banks and
29.1 percent by public banks.
Meanwhile, total outstanding credit of the banking system (excluding credit to government) increased to Birr 472.4 billion, showing a 27.4 percent year-on￾year growth. About 100 percent of private banks’ and 79 percent of state owned, banks’ loans went to finance the private sector.
2. Insurance Sector
The number of insurance companies stood at 17, of which 16 were private owned. Their branches increased to 558 from 524 a year ago. Of the total branches, about 54 percent were located in Addis Ababa. Similarly, their total capital reached Birr
6.8 billion, of which about 76.7 percent was
that of private insurance companies.
3. Microfinance Institutions
The 38 micro-finance institutions (MFIs) operating in the country have mobilized Birr 38.4 billion in saving deposit by end of the third quarter which was 27.1 percent higher than last year same period. Their total outstanding credit also increased 31.6 percent and reached Birr 51.7 billion. Similarly, their total asset grew 26 percent to reach Birr 76.5 billion at the end of March, 2019. E. External Sector and Foreign Exchange Developments

  1. External Sector Development
    In the third quarter of 2018/19, total merchandise export earnings amounted to USD 678.5 million, showing 7 percent reduction relative to last year same quarter. This was largely attributed to lower earnings from export of coffee (7.5 percent), oilseeds (4.3 percent), gold (92.5 percent), leather and leather products (16 percent), meat & meat products (13.7 percent), fruits & vegetables (2 percent), flower (2.1 percent) and electricity (12.3 percent). In contrast, total merchandise import bill slightly increased (0.5 percent) to USD 3.6 billion, on account of higher import values of semi-finished goods (67.5 percent) and fuel (8.8 percent) outweighing lower import values of capital goods (10.4 percent), consumer goods (21.4 percent) and raw materials (24.1 percent). The average price of Brent crude oil, which is used as a point of reference for international oil price, depicted a 5.7 percent slowdown to USD 67.7 per barrel vis-à-vis USD 67 a year ago. It also showed a 6.7 percent reduction relative to the preceding quarter. Accordingly, the average retail prices of fuel in Addis Ababa dropped to Birr 17.3 per liter from Birr 17.6 per liter owing to the decline in retail price of jet fuel (33.3 percent) and kerosene (4.7 percent). During the review period, total transfer receipts slightly increased by 0.9 percent to about USD 1.8 billion, wholly on account of the rise in private transfer receipts (7.8 percent) against lower official transfers (44.5 percent). Meanwhile, total transfer payments depicted 114.6 percent increment largely owing to 273.9 percent reduction in official transfer payments Consequently, the current account balance (including official transfers) recorded USD
    1.4 billion in deficit compared with USD
    1.1 billion deficit a year ago.
    In contrast, capital account registered USD 831 million surplus, but 48.4 percent lower than that of a year earlier. This was attributed to the decrease in net official long term capital (52 percent), other public sector long term capital (259.9 percent), private sector long term capital (53.2 percent) and foreign direct investment (23.4 percent). As a result, the overall balance of payments registered USD 124.1 million surplus, compared to USD 507.1 million surplus a year ago.

Meanwhile, Real Effective Exchange Rate Index (REERI) of the Birr appreciated 23.3 percent on annual basis mainly due to the strengthening of the US dollar against Ethiopia’s major trading partners’ currencies. Similarly, the Nominal Effective Exchange Rate Index (NEERI) appreciated 20.1 percent over last year same quarter. F. Federal Government Fiscal Operations Total revenue and grants collected by the Federal government during the third quarter of 2018/19 showed 32.3 percent annual growth and reached Birr 61.6 billion.

2.1. Import of Petroleum Products
The volume of petroleum products imported during the third quarter of 2018/19 amounted to 1.1 million metric tons showing a 14.8 percent annual increase due to higher import of regular gasoline (18.2 percent), jet fuel (39.1 percent) and gas oil (9.8 percent). Fuel oil however depicted a 26.8 percent decline. The volume of imported petroleum products also increased by 9 percent compared to the previous quarter due to higher imports of regular gasoline (11 percent) and gas oil (15 percent). Of the total petroleum product imported, gas oil accounted for 65.7 percent, jet fuel
19.8 percent, regular gasoline 12.9 percent

III. Quarterly Price Developments
3.1 Developments in National CPI
During the third quarter of 2018/19, headline inflation rate rose to 3.1 percent from 0.3 percent in the preceding quarter and 2.7 percent a year ago. The rise in quarterly headline inflation rate was attributed to 2.7 percentage point increase in food & non-alcoholic beverages inflation and 2.9 percentage point in non-food inflation. The 0.4 percentage point year-on￾year rise in headline inflation was due to 1.0 percentage point increase in food & non￾alcoholic beverages inflation despite 0.3 percentage point decline in non-food inflation. Food & non-alcoholic beverages contributed 1.5 percent while non-food inflation contributed 1.6 percent to the 3.1 percent headline inflation rate recorded in the quarter. In relative terms, 51.6 percent of the quarterly inflation originated from non￾food inflation and 48.4 percent from food inflation (Table 3.1 and Fig 3.1 below).

III. Quarterly Price Developments
3.1 Developments in National CPI
During the third quarter of 2018/19, headline inflation rate rose to 3.1 percent from 0.3 percent in the preceding quarter and 2.7 percent a year ago. The rise in quarterly headline inflation rate was attributed to 2.7 percentage point increase in food & non-alcoholic beverages inflation and 2.9 percentage point in non-food inflation. The 0.4 percentage point year-on￾year rise in headline inflation was due to 1.0 percentage point increase in food & non￾alcoholic beverages inflation despite 0.3 percentage point decline in non-food inflation. Food & non-alcoholic beverages contributed 1.5 percent while non-food inflation contributed 1.6 percent to the 3.1 percent headline inflation rate recorded in the quarter. In relative terms, 51.6 percent of the quarterly inflation originated from non￾food inflation and 48.4 percent from food inflation (Table 3.1 and Fig 3.1 below).

4.2. Developments in Reserve Money and Monetary Ratio
Reserve money reached Birr 177.8 billion in the third quarter of 2018/19, about 9.6 percent higher than a year ago. Excess reserve of commercial banks contracted 29.7 percent on annual and 26.5 percent on quarterly basis. The money multiplier, measured by the ratio of broad money to reserve money, tended to increase both on quarterly and annual terms due to strong deposit mobilization by commercial banks.

7.2. Inter- Bank Money Market
No inter-bank money market transaction was conducted during the quarter under review (Table 4.12).
4.7.3. Corporate Bond Market
The corporate bond market is not well￾developed in Ethiopia and the issuance of the bond is limited to a few big public institutions and regional governments. The purchaser of these bonds is solely the Commercial Bank of Ethiopia (CBE). During the third quarter, CBE purchased corporate bonds to the tune of Birr 33.1 billion. The respective shares of EEPCo, Railway Corporation and Addis Ababa City government in total purchase of corporate bonds during the review period were 64.5 percent (Birr 21.3 billion), 32.5 percent (Birr
10.70 billion) and 3.01 percent (Birr 1.0
billion).
At the end of March 2019, the stock of corporate bonds held by CBE stood at Birr
314.01 billion, of which 91.3 percent was
claims on public enterprises and the rest claims on regional governments (Table 4.15). Corporate bonds issued by EEPCO accounted for 66.5 percent of the bonds issued by public enterprises and 78.2 percent of the total outstanding corporate bond balance.

5.1. Balance of Payments
During the third quarter of 2018/19, the overall balance of payments registered USD 124.1 million surplus compared to USD 507.1 million surplus a year ago. This was mainly attributed to the increase in merchandise trade and net services deficit coupled with the decline in official transfers and capital account balance despite improvement in net private transfers (Table 5.1).

V. External Sector Developments
5.1. Balance of Payments
During the third quarter of 2018/19, the overall balance of payments registered USD 124.1 million surplus compared to USD 507.1 million surplus a year ago. This was mainly attributed to the increase in merchandise trade and net services deficit coupled with the decline in official transfers and capital account balance despite improvement in net private transfers (Table 5.1).

36 Third Quarter 2018/19
National Bank of Ethiopia Quarterly Bulletin Total current account receipts amounted to USD 3,578.95 million, 0.4 percent lower than a year earlier on account of a
7.2 percent decline in export proceeds
and 44.5 percent drop in public transfers in contrast with 2.2 percent increase in service proceeds and 7.8 percent in private transfers. At the same time, total current account payments went up to USD 4.96 billion due to 0.5 percent rise in merchandise import payments, 20.4 percent increase in service payments and 273.9 percent growth in public transfer payments. Thus, the current account balance recorded USD 1.38 billion deficit which was 25.5 percent wider than that of a year ago (Table 5.2).

5.2.1 Export of Goods
Earnings from goods export declined by

owing to the decrease in export receipts from coffee (7.5 percent), oilseeds (4.3 percent), leather & leather product (16.0 percent), meat & meat products (13.7 percent), fruits & vegetables (2.0 percent), gold (92.5 percent), flower (2.1 percent) and electricity (12.3 percent). In contrast, export earnings from pulses (6.4 percent), live animals (59.7 percent), chat (6.8 percent) and other export items (11.2 percent) grew in the review period. Receipts from coffee export fell 7.5 percent against last year same quarter and reached USD 165.2 million. This decline was attributed to 8.1 percent drop in volume despite the 0.6 percent rise in export price. Hence, the share of coffee in total merchandise export earnings slightly decreased to 24.0 percent. Likewise, export revenue from oilseeds stood at USD 130.2 million, showing a

Hence, Federal government budget operations resulted in an overall deficit (including grant) of Birr 13.3 billion, compared with Birr 24.4 billion deficit of a year ago. The deficit was financed from net external borrowing and net domestic borrowing (Table6.1). Fig.VI.5: Federal Government Finance during Second Quarter of F.Y 2018/19
VIII. International Economic Developments
8.1 Overview of the World Economy6
Global survey indicators point to some deceleration in global activity in the third quarter of 2018/19. The PMI recorded during the quarter was below the level recorded in 2017 and the first half of 2018, consistent with some deceleration in the global growth momentum. 6 Sections 8.1 – 8.3 are excerpted from European Central Bank monthly bulletin of 3/2019. Across advanced economies, the US market the all-industry survey indicator declined from rather high levels during the third quarter. PMIs also decreased in the United Kingdom and Japan, due to weaker readings in March. In emerging market economies, the quarterly PMI picked up strongly in Brazil, while decreasing in India and Russia.

VII. Developments in Investment
During the third quarter of 2018/19, 40 investment projects having investment capital of Birr 249.8 million became operational. Compared to last year same quarter, both the number of investment projects and investment capital showed 92.8 and 96.1 percent decline. Likewise, when compared with previous quarter it shows a down ward movement by 77.4 and 69.3 percent respectively. All reported investment projects were private and about 90 percent were domestic and merely 10 percent foreign. The domestic projects had Birr 202.2 million (81 percent) investment capital while that of foreign projects Birr 47.6 million (19 percent). All the investment projects have generated employment opportunities for 2,437 people which was 64.8 percent lower than last year same quarter. Of the total employment about
54.6 percent was permanent and 45.4
percent casual (Table 7.1).

72 Third Quarter 2018/19
National Bank of Ethiopia Quarterly Bulletin the third quarter, although it recorded a strong increase in March. In the United States real GDP growth expanded at an annualized rate of 2.2 percent in the second quarter of 2018/197 which was supported by the contributions from private consumption and non￾residential fixed investment, despite the negative contributions of government spending and net exports. While overall GDP growth remains supported by strong fundamentals, economic activity is expected to decelerate in the third quarter of 2018/19. In the United Kingdom, growth of GDP sowed to 0.2 percent in the second quarter of 2018/19. Short-term indicators suggest continued subdued GDP growth in the third quarter of 2018/19, as elevated Brexit￾related uncertainty dampens consumption and investment. 7 In some parts of international economic development report, quarter II data is used when quarter III statistics unavailable. In Japan economic activity slowed in early 2019, following a rebound towards the end of last year. Real GDP increased by 0.5 percent, quarter on quarter, in the second quarter of 2018/19, mainly supported by domestic demand, particularly non￾residential investment. However, high frequency indicators point to a slowdown in underlying momentum at the start of the year. In China growth is stabilizing, the weakening in the manufacturing sector is partly offset by resilience in services. During January and February 2019, industrial production softened further and fixed-asset investment growth recovered slightly, while growth in nominal retail sales remained robust.
6.3 Deficit Financing
Hence, Federal government budget operations resulted in an overall deficit (including grant) of Birr 13.3 billion, compared with Birr 24.4 billion deficit of a year ago. The deficit was financed from net external borrowing and net domestic borrowing (Table6.1). Fig.VI.5: Federal Government Finance during Second Quarter of F.Y 2018/19
VIII. International Economic Developments
8.1 Overview of the World Economy6
Global survey indicators point to some deceleration in global activity in the third quarter of 2018/19. The PMI recorded during the quarter was below the level recorded in 2017 and the first half of 2018, consistent with some deceleration in the global growth momentum. 6 Sections 8.1 – 8.3 are excerpted from European Central Bank monthly bulletin of 3/2019. Across advanced economies, the US market the all-industry survey indicator declined from rather high levels during the third quarter.

While overall GDP growth remains supported by strong fundamentals, economic activity is expected to decelerate in the third quarter of 2018/19. In the United Kingdom, growth of GDP sowed to 0.2 percent in the second quarter of 2018/19. Short-term indicators suggest continued subdued GDP growth in the third quarter of 2018/19, as elevated Brexit￾related uncertainty dampens consumption and investment. 7 In some parts of international economic development report, quarter II data is used when quarter III statistics unavailable. In Japan economic activity slowed in early 2019, following a rebound towards the end of last year. Real GDP increased by 0.5 percent, quarter on quarter, in the second quarter of 2018/19, mainly supported by domestic demand, particularly non￾residential investment. However, high frequency indicators point to a slowdown in underlying momentum at the start of the year. In China growth is stabilizing, the weakening in the manufacturing sector is partly offset by resilience in services. During January and February 2019, industrial production softened further and fixed-asset investment growth recovered slightly, while growth in nominal retail sales remained robust.
6.3 Deficit Financing
Hence, Federal government budget operations resulted in an overall deficit (including grant) of Birr 13.3 billion, compared with Birr 24.4 billion deficit of a year ago. The deficit was financed from net external borrowing and net domestic borrowing (Table6.1). Fig.VI.5: Federal Government Finance during Second Quarter of F.Y 2018/19
VIII. International Economic Developments
8.1 Overview of the World Economy6
Global survey indicators point to some deceleration in global activity in the third quarter of 2018/19. The PMI recorded during the quarter was below the level recorded in 2017 and the first half of 2018, consistent with some deceleration in the global growth momentum. 6 Sections 8.1 – 8.3 are excerpted from European Central Bank monthly bulletin of 3/2019. Across advanced economies, the US market the all-industry survey indicator declined from rather high levels during the third quarter. PMIs also decreased in the United Kingdom and Japan, due to weaker readings in March. In emerging market economies, the quarterly PMI picked up strongly in Brazil, while decreasing in India and Russia.

8.2. Inflation Developments
Global inflation remained stable in
February. Annual consumer price inflation in the Organization for Economic Co￾operation and Development (OECD) countries remained unchanged in February at 2.1 percent, following a sequence of declines since the peak registered in October last year. Excluding food and energy prices, OECD annual inflation slowed marginally to
2.1 percent. Tight labor market conditions
across major advanced economies have so far translated into only moderate wage increases, suggesting that the underlying inflation pressures remain subdued. In the United States, annual headline inflation declined to 1.5 percent in February, 2019 due to a sharp deceleration in energy prices, while average hourly earnings remained strong. In Japan, annual headline inflation declined to 0.2 percent in both January and February, 2019, reflecting mostly a decline in the energy price contribution and strong declines in fresh food prices. Core inflation (i.e. excluding food and energy) has picked up slightly to 0.3 percent. In U.K. annual CPI inflation has continued to decline, falling to 1.8 percent in the first two months of 2019. This is well below the depreciation-induced peak at 3.0 percent seen one year earlier and reflects both the waning impact of earlier strong rises in import prices and rapid declines in energy prices. In Euro area annual HICP inflation declined to 1.4 percent in March 2019, from 1.5 percent in February, despite higher energy price inflation and reflected lower food price inflation.
8.3 Commodity Price
Oil prices have continued to increase since mid-March. After the surge in mid￾February, following the release of data that show an improvement in OPEC+ compliance with its supply-cut agreements. After OPEC+ reset its two-year-old agreement at the end of last year to reduce oil supply, overall production by the cartel has decreased since January 2019. In addition, the US sanctions against Iran and Venezuela continued to affect the supply.
8.4 Exchange Rate Developments
In foreign exchange markets, the euro has remained broadly unchanged in trade￾weighted terms. Over the review period, the nominal effective exchange rate of the euro, measured against the currencies of 38 of the euro area’s most important trading partners, Non-oil commodity prices have remained broadly unchanged since early March. appreciated by 0.1 percent. This resulted a modest strengthening of the euro against the US dollar (by 0.1 percent) and the Chinese renminbi (by 0.1 percent), as well as a more pronounced appreciation against the pound sterling (by 0.5 percent) and the currencies of most other non-euro area EU Member States (with the exception of the Swedish krona and the Polish zloty). These developments were only partly offset by a depreciation of the euro against other major currencies.
8.5. Impact of Global Economic Development on Ethiopian Economy
During the third quarter of 2018/19, global economic indicators pointed a deceleration in global activity. The global composite output Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) excluding the euro area weakened in the third quarter of 2018/19. Global headline inflation declined in most countries in February. This, together with high domestic prices, made the REER to appreciate 23.3 percent. On the other hand, stagnation of non-oil commodity prices since early March, 2019 may decrease the country’s export receipts that could have depressing effect on the current account deficit.
