José Alfredo Rizek V., managing partner at Rizek Abogados, the Diaz Reus affiliate office in Santo Domingo, member of the DRT Alliance: “In 2019, the Dominican economy will likely have lower growth than that registered in 2018. However, it will not be a significant deceleration, since it is expected that GDP growth will remain at or about 5 percent. Also, inflation will remain under control and will likely not exceed 3 percent. Tourism, free-trade zones and construction should maintain their dynamism.»
