University of Costa Rica´s School of Economic Sciences predicts modest economic growth for nation this year

The University of Costa Rica's School of Economic Sciences predicts that the year will end with economic growth of 3.8 to 4.8 percent, a moderate rate that may disappoint some but is better than many industrial nations.

For consumers, the economists have better news --an inflation rate of up to 5.5 percent, less than was predicted during the first two quarters of the year.

The rate of 2010 was one of recovery from a recession.
