Amid the upheav government proposed a rewriting of the constitution, while Congress ‘approved a revised 2020 budget that ramps up public expenditure on Pensions, healthcare and transport, and is projected to push the fiscal deficit to 2.9% of GDP from a previously planned 2.0% of GDP. Although this should provide a temporary boost o private consumption, itis not clear if higher public expenditure alone will defuse the protests, while business ‘confidence could be hit by heightened uncertainties surrounding a new constitution. Available data since the start of the turbulence has been bleak, with economic activity contracting forthe frst ime in two and a half years in October. This markedly contrasts the third quarter's expansion, which saw the economy growing at the fastest pace of the year thanks to blistering fied investment growth and a rebound in exports. Growth prospects have deteriorated since the wake of the protests in October, with a majority of panelists subsequently revising down their projections for 2020, While fiscal concessions should boost private ‘consumption, fixed investment will likely stall as uncertainties weigh on business confidence. In addition, public debt is seen rising on a wider fiscal deficit. FocusEconomics panelists see GDP expanding 2.2% in 2020, which is down 0.6 percentage points from last month’s forecast, ‘and 2.8% in 2021 Inflation jumped to 2.5% in October (September: 2.1%), marking a 410-month high and nearing the midpoint of the 2.0%~4.0% target band {as the rots disrupted the economy. Although weakened demand could moderate price pressures ahead, the sharp depreciation of the peso and protracted unrest pose upside risks to inflation. Our panel expects inflation to end 2020 at 2.8%, which is unchanged from last month's forecast, and 2021 at 2.9%, Al its 22-23 October meeting, the Central Bank axed the key benchmark rate by 25 basis points to an over nine-year low of 1.75%, amid subdued inflation. The next December meeting, which the Bank brought forward by two days, is Ikely to maintain its dovish bias ahead amid downside risks to growth stemming from the recent wave of protests. The Consensus projects the policy rate to end 2020 at 1.40% and 2021 at 2.07%. Social unrest continued to heavily weigh on the peso in recent weeks, despite a brief respite prompted by the Central Bank’s intervention on 14 November. On 29 November, CLP traded at 805, a 9.6% depreciation from the same day last month. Going forward, most analysts expect the peso will recover somewhat thanks to the country’s strong fundamentals. Our panelists expect the peso to end 2020 at 749 CLP per USD and 2021 at 721 CLP per USD, LatinFocus Consensus Forecast [53 FOCUSECONOMICS Chile December 2019, ‘Gross Domestic Product | variation in % REAL SECTOR | Economy expands at the fastest pace this year in Q3 Growth clocked in at 3.3% year-on-year in the third quarter, accelerating from the second quarter's 1.9% increase and marking the fastest expansion so far this year. The upturn was broad-based and came largely in line with market expectations. Domestic activity gained traction in the third quarter, Private consumption growth firmed up following a downturn in the previous quarter (Q3: +3.0% year-on-year; Q2: +2.4% yoy), chiefly thanks to a notable increase in services ‘consumption, which more than offset weaker consumption of durable goods. On top of that, fixed investment continued to gather momentum and increased at the swiftest pace in four years in the third quarter (Q3: +5.9% yoy; Q2: +#5.3% yoy), supported by booming investment activity in the construction sector. Lastly, annual growth in public spending remained unchanged at the previous quarter's 1.9% in Q3. On the extemal front, operating conditions also improved in the third quarter. Exports rebounded following two consecutive months of contraction (C3: #+1.2% yoy; Q2: -3.4% yoy), amid an uptum in copper production, which buoyed overall exports, Meanwhile, imports contracted again in the third quarter, although the deciine was less sharp than in the second quarter (Q3: “1.8% yoy; Q2: -3.5% yoy). As a result, the external sector's contribution to growth improved considerably in Q3. Looking at the industry-level performance, the third-quarter uptum was similarly broad-based. Mining GDP increased 1.4% year-on-year in 3, “which was up from the 0.2% uptick recorded in Q2 and marked the strongest expansion since Q2 2018. Furthermore, non-mining GOP growth jumped to 3.6% annually in Q3, from 2.1% in Q2. (On a quarter-on-quarter, seasonally-adjusted basis, GOP rose 0.7% in 03, ‘matching the previous quarter's outturn, Looking forward, growth prospects forthe Chilean economy have deteriorated significantly since mid-October, when widespread protests and riots erupted over deep-rooted socio-economic inequality, fueling the biggest political crisis since the country retumed to democracy. Consequently, shoriterm growth prospects have dampened considerably, while uncertainty is elevated over the country’s political and economic course going forward. With regards to the impact of the protests on GDP growth going forward, Diego W. Pereira and Lucila Barbeito, analysts at JPMorgan, nated: “In our estimates, potential GDP would be lower both in 2020 and 2021. Some months ago the BCCh revised potential GDP higher, mainly on the back of the immigration impact on the labor market, to 3.4% for 2020 and 2021. But following the social unrest shock, we believe potential GDP should be revised lower. We work under the assumption of potential GDP at 2.2% and 2.6% for 2020 and 2021, respectively. Note that despite the hefty reduction to the potential GDP gauge, the output gap would widen a bit in 2020, starting to narrow in 2021 (by then we estimate GDP growth at 3.0%y/) In its September assessment, the Central Bank saw the economy expanding between 2.8%-3.8% in 2020 and between 3.0%-4.0% in 2021 LatinFocus Consensus Forecast FOCUSECONOMICS Chile December 2019, Economic Activity | variation in % Consumer Confidence FocusEconomics panelists see growth of 2.2% in 2020, down 0.6 percentage points from last month’s forecast, For 2021 they expect the economy to grow 28%. REAL SECTOR | Economic activity crashes to over-decade low in October on country-wide protests In October, the IMACEC economic activity Index contracted 3.4% on an annual basis, contrasting September's 3.0% expansion and marking the lowest print since June 2009, October's slump was chiefly driven by a 4.0% dive in the nonemining economy, which contrasted the 3.6% expansion logged a month prior, as civil unrest routed supply chains and hampered demand across the service, manufacturing and commerce sectors, Conversely, the mining economy rebounded by 2.0%, after contracting 1.6% in September. In month-or-month seasonally-adjusted terms, economic activity fell 5.4% ‘over the previous month in October, following September's 0.5% contraction. In view of October's result, Daniela Velandia, analyst at Credicorp Capital noted "We expect social unrest to continue affecting economic growth in the upcoming months as activity in several sectors has not returned to full normaly yet and the agenda of the government has changed, This, together with the disappointing Oct-19 data, means that itis highly likely that 4019 GDP growth will be negative, which in turn would lead 2019 economic growth to stand below our current 1.7% forecast” ‘OUTLOOK | Consumer sentiment falls to three-year low in October The Adimark GfK consumer confidence index fell to 36.7 points in October, the lowest print since October 2016, from 38.6 points in September, thus falling further below the critical 50-point threshold that separates pessimism from optimism among Chilean consumers. October's detailed estimate showed that consumers’ current conditions and future prospects deteriorated. Chileans were more pessimistic about both the ‘country’s current situation and their current personal conditions. Meanwhile, their outlook of the country’s stability in the next five years plunged deeper into negative territory, while their willingness to purchase big ticket household items also deteriorated further. In contrast, consumers’ prospects of the country's economic conditions over the next year improved, although they remained negative overall Panelists participating in the LatinFocus Consensus Forecast expect private consumption to grow 2.1% in 2020, which is down 0.9 percentage points from last month's forecast. For 2021, the panel expects private consumption to grow 2.8%, OUTLOOK | Business confidence falls to record-low in November amid wide spread protests The business confidence index (IMCE), published by ICARE and the Adolfo Ibafez University, plummeted to 36.6 points in November, contrasting the previous month's §1.5 points results and marking the lowest print in the series history. As a result, the index dived below the crucial 50-point threshold that LatinFocus Consensus Forecast | 55 FOCUSECONOMICS Chile December 2019, Business Confidence aetta Nom dueraes Corres aes MCE, nes Meal Contes Emenee eens cpra pao bso Ene Inftation | Consumer rice index Nom Youre mary tin of puree int separates pessimism from optimism among the Chilean businesses. The downturn reflected heightened uncertainties stemming from civil unrests that has rocked the country since mid-October and the proposed rewriting of the ‘country’s constitution, All four subcomponents ofthe index fell markedly in November. Confidence in the commerce sector tumed pessimistic, while confidence in the construction and industrial sectors fell deeper into negative territory. Meanwhile, although sentiment in the mining sector fel significantly it remained in positive territory Panelists surveyed for this month's LatinFocus report project fixed investment to expand 1.3% in 2020, which is down 2.6 percentage points from last month's forecast. For 2021, they project itto grow 3.4%. MONETARY SECTOR | Inflation rises to 10-month high in October Consumer prices rase 0.8% in October, after seeing no growth in September. According to the national statistical institute, prices for housing and transport saw the largest increases. Meanwhile, core consumer prices rose 0.5%, up from 0.1% in September. Inflation logged 2.5% in October, accelerating from September's 2.1% and ‘marking the highest print since December 2018. Similarly, core inflation rose to 2.6% (September: 2.3%). In response to the jump in inflation, which largely reflected supply shocks caused by protests, the Central Bank brought their meeting forward to 6 December, Annual average inflation, meanwhile, came in at 2.2%, marginally below September's 2.3%. Reflecting on the path of monetary policy ahead analysts at Credicorp Capital noted “The discussion on the future path of monetary policy remains both challenging and interesting. Overall, most part of the analysts have changed their mind from expecting further rate cuts as soon as this week to project, rnot movements in the upcoming months. It has been mainly explained by the sharp CLP depreciation that led the BCCh to intervene directly in the FX spot ‘market forthe fist time since 2011." In their September's assessment the Central Bank projected year-end inflation of 2.8% in 2020 and of 3.0% in 2021. FocusEconomics Consensus Forecast panelists expect inflation to end 2020 at 2.8%, which is unchanged from last month's forecast, and at 2.9% in 2021, Meanwiile, the current Consensus is for the Central Bank's policy rate to remain broadly unchanged in the near-term, ending 2020 at 1.40% and 2021 at 2.07%. MONETARY SECTOR | Peso dives to a new record low as civil turmoil persists in November Capital outfiows drove the Chilean peso to an all-time low in November, as protests showed no signs of abating. On 28 November, the peso ended the day at 805 per USD, a 9.62% depreciation from the same day in October, The result marked a 13.8% depreciation year-to-date and a 16.7% loss from the same day last year.

Sac tan Exar ‘After the Central Bank's intervention on 14 November brought a brief respite, the peso continued to depreciate in recent weeks as the prospects of prolonged uncertainty stemming from the drafting of a new constitution and cooling economic activity dampened investors’ sentiment. On 28 November, the Central Bank thus announced a USD 20 billion injection, the largest intervention since 1999, through swap and repo operations between 2 December and 24 May 2020, While the decision is certain to erode the country’s USD 39:5 billion worth of foreign currency reserves, itis not clear ‘whether it wll stem the peso's plunge. With regard to the Central Bank's intervention, analysts at JPMorgan noted: “The stress the peso is suffering obeys to stability considerations amid a protracted scenario of social unrest and street violence, which has prompted an abrupt portfolio repositioning against the backdrop of the pronounced stress and uncertainty. Thus, should the uncertainty extend further, the idea of BCCh sacrificing half of the reserves stock could exacerbate financial pressures. Yet, the low gross and net indebtedness of the public sector should be addressed ‘when entertaining the actual macroeconomic buffers of the economy. For ‘example, the low gross debt level allows the country to quickly negotiate an FCL line with the IMF so to engross the level of gross FX reserves. (Our panel sees the peso recovering going forward. As it stands, they see the currency ending 2020 at 749 per USD and 2021 at 721 per USD. EXTERNAL SECTOR | Copper prices pick up in November Copper prices gained some ground in November, buoyed by optimism over a U.S-China trade deal. On average, prices for the red metal logged USD 2.66 per pound (equivalent to USD 5,860 per ton), up from October's average price of USD 2.61 per pound (equivalent to 5,757 per ton). However, prices ‘were 5.4% lawer than in the same month last year and down 1.3% on a year- to-date basis. Copper prices gained some ground in recent weeks following Donald Trump's announcement on 26 November that ‘phase one” ofatrade deal wth Chinawas near completion. In addition, supply-side constraints in Chile likely supported prices over the past month, as the top copper producer struggled to quell ‘country-wide protests, Prices, however, slipped at the end of November after, diplomatic support from the U.S. to Hong Kong cast doubt on a preliminary resolution ofthe trade war with China. The evolution of the U.S.-China trade negotiations will continue to shape the outlook for copper, with price volatility stemming from sudden animosity between the two countries likely to persist in the short-run. The medium-term outlook looks brighter, however, as refined production lags behind usage, ‘amid limited production capacity and increasing demand for copper in new technologies such as electric vehicles and greeneneray projects. (Our panelists expect copper prices to end 2020 at USD 2.77 per pound and 2021 at USD 2.81 per pound LatinFocus Consensus Forecast | 57 FOCUSECONOMICS Chile December 2019, Economic Indicators |2015 - 2024 ‘Annual Data 2015 2016 01720182019 2020 021 20222028 2024 Real Sector Population (rion) wo e2 eases aT a8 O_o {SDP per capita (USD) 1360 13788 15.125 15911 14905 14,195 15323 16407 17.202 18,182 ‘30 (USD bn) 205 2502708828525 32a 5 {G0 (CP bn) 4189553 169,470 180211 191249 199.619 209.432 221.587 294.817 249,102 254536 Economie Growth (Nominal GOP, ann.var.%6) «74—=««GZ BSBA AS HOB BOS Economic Growth (GOP, ann. vr.) 23°17 «1340202228 2830 Domest Demand (ann. var 6) 28 18 29 47 19 18 27 28 30 30 “otal Consumption (ann. var. %) 28 34 3207 232k kT 2 Private Consumption (an. var.) 21-260 «30402321228 30k ‘Government Consumoton (ann. var. %) 48072 44 22 24 33,30 282728 Fed Investent ana. var. 8) 03 430 27 47 3813, 340312827 xporis (G&S, an. var. 6) 47005 41 50-4833 32130 Ipods (68S, ann. var.) “10347784505 35323 Manufacturing (ann, var. 6) 08 02 «1028 Ot 30k Reta Sales (ann. va. %) 24 31 464027 2B Unemployment (of active population. 20p) 63 65 66 069737 BBCSO Fiscal Balance (% of GOP) 2127 27 72225220 Public Debt (% of GDP) 73 1035 8827S 82 OOS SSH Monetary and Financial Sector inition (CPI, ann var. %,e00) a a inflation (CPI, ann var. %, 308) 4438222423 283033 Monetary Plcy Rate % 6p) 350 350 250275188 140207288 3.1538 10-Year Bord Viel (,e09), 475427452 445341351382 aat 487 Exchange Rate (CLP per USD. 2p) 70 8705759 T4721 2B TAS T28 Exchange Rate (CLP per USD. 20p) ess 578 A920 TB T3572 T2128 External Sector ‘Gurren Account Bande 9% af GOP) 2S 3228s CGurent Account Balance (USD bn) 37 40 2178 37 75 75 75 Merchandise Trade Balance (USD bn) 3449 4449 57 a1 as 89 Merchandise Expo's (USD br) «20 607 TMi 7217852078 ahd Merchandise imports (USD bn) 535 559 oss 6737077597 Merchancise Export (ann. var. %) ama 21 S700 14 80727373 ‘Merchandise imports (ann. var.) sas 47 36 070 52730 «737A ‘Copper Price (USD per 20p) 250 221 2m 27281 2a 2B Foreign Direct Investment (USD bn) 20 Na BT Intentional Reserves (USD bn) 385405 295 Me 431 a5 Interaional Reserves (months of imports) 7387 741 65 84 ‘dermal Debt (USO bn) i187 193 mem External Debt (% of GDP) 254 687 ers e169 | ‘Quarterly Data 318 asi 0319 220 0320 a420 Economic Growth (GDP, an. vr.) 26 38 33 22002128 Economie Growth (GOP, god .a var. %) oo 14 o7 16044 Domestic Demand (ann var 6) 4445 24 120 142 Private Consumption (an. var 6) 4138 30 19 192 ‘Government Consumption (ann. va. %) 1843 19 Bi 34 a7 Fed Invesment ana. var.) 4258 59 oss 47 Manufacturing (ann, var 6) 04 29 23 te Retail Sales (an, va. %) 2528 09 oft ‘Unemployment (% of active population, 309) 72 88 ts TA 1872 Inflation (CP, ann var, e00) 3128 24 28 3129 Monetary Pelcy Rate (in %, 9p) 250 275 2.00 12 1401.40 10-Year Bond Viel (%, 209), aa 4.45 2.80 349350351 Exchange Rate (CLP per USD. sop) 85363 723 738758749 ‘Curent Account Balance (% of GDP) 430 48 48 25° 34 28 Current Account Balance (USD on) 23 336 32 47230 48 Mrchancise Trade Balance (USD br) 01 3 0% 14 113 Merchancise Expos (USD br) 178192 189 v7 75181 Merchandise imperts (USD bn) 179189 188 162 167 168 Monthly Data Feb-1s Mar-i9 June Sep-19 Oct-19 Nov.t9 Economic Aatity IMACEC, ann var. %) 1a aT 17 300034 Manufacturing (an. var.) os ia 3 24 ot Unemployment (ling quarters, % act. pop.) 8789 7 74 2 Consumer Confidence Index (SOpt threshold) 483423 we 3 3d awa Business Confdence index S0pttheshold) 542 —5AO m2 504 5105075308 tation (CP, mom var.) 0005 oo 02 o2 oo of - Intation (OP, an. var.) 1720 230022023021 Exchange Rate (CLP per USD. cop) ess oat ers 70k 72129742805 ‘Copper Price (USO per 2p) 285 202 2e7 2869259281281 268 Note: Focus conomics Consensus Forecasts re Nghlghed in grey.
