      :Denmark Economy

      Overview:

       This modern economy features high-tech agriculture, up-to-date small-scale

       and corporate industry, extensive government welfare measures, comfortable

       living standards, and high dependence on foreign trade. Denmark probably

       will continue its successful economic recovery in 1992 with tight fiscal and

       monetary policies and export- oriented growth. Prime Minister Schluter's

       main priorities are to maintain a current account surplus in order to pay

       off extensive external debt and to continue to freeze public-sector

       expenditures in order to reduce the budget deficit. The rate of growth by

       1993 - boosted by increased investment and domestic demand - may be

       sufficient to start to cut Denmark's high unemployment rate, which is

       expected to remain at about 11% in 1992. Low inflation, low wage increases,

       and the current account surplus put Denmark in a good competitive position

       for the EC's anticipated single market, although Denmark must cut its VAT

       and income taxes.
