At the beginning of 2021, the Cuban economy finds itself in very precarious conditions. The presentation analyzes recent macroeconomic trends in Cuba with a focus on GDP growth, merchandise and service trade patterns, the external debt, and the country’s overall financial situation. It also identifies systemic problems and external factors that negatively affect the overall performance of the Cuban economy. On the internal front, Cuba continues to suffer from all the inefficiencies, red tape, and distortions of its state-dominated and overly centralized economy.
