Ekonomiczna pomoc - pobieranie | $106.4 million
note: under terms of the Compact of Free Association, the US pledged $1.3 billion w grant aid during the period 1986-2001; the level of aid has been subsequently reduced (2005) |
Ekonomia | Economic activity consists primarily of subsistence farming and fishing. The islands have few mineral deposits worth exploiting, except dla high-grade phosphate. The potential dla a tourist industry exists, but the remote location, a lack of adequate facilities, and limited air connections hinder development. The Amended Compact of Free Association z the US guarantees the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) millions of dollars w annual aid through 2023, and establishes a Trust Fund into which the US and the FSM make annual contributions w order to provide annual payouts to the FSM w perpetuity after 2023. The country's medium-term economic outlook appears fragile due not only to the reduction w US assistance but also to the current slow growth of the private sector. |
