This year is the point where the economy peaked – it can’t get any better. We already see economic growth tapering off in Estonia, the EU and elsewhere. But will we lose our footing as we slide downhill or will we be able to softly glissade down the easy slopes?

Entrepreneurs believe the hard times are past and increasing turnover and profit will also lead many countries’ economic growth to faster recovery. A survey conducted by tax and business advisory firm Grant Thornton among business people in 36 countries found that business optimism is at a two-year high.

Businesses both in and outside Estonia are very optimistic about this year’s outlook. But I recommend taking the rose-coloured glasses off and committing to making investments this year in order to improve effectiveness.
