Economy
Over one-third of the world's raspberries are grown in Serbia.

With a GDP for 2010 estimated at $80.602 billion or $10,897 per capita PPP, Serbia is an upper-middle income economy by the World Bank. Foreign Direct Investment in 2006 was $5.85 billion or 4.5 billion. FDI for 2007 reached $4.2 Billion while real GDP per capita figures are estimated to have reached $6,781 in April 2009. The GDP growth rate showed increase by 6.3% in 2005, 5.8% in 2006, reaching 7.5% in 2007 and 8.7% in 2004 as the fastest growing economy in the region. According to Eurostat data, Serbian PPS GDP per capita stood at 37% of the EU average in 2008. The economy has a high unemployment rate of 14% and a unfavorable trade deficit. The country expects some major economic impulses and high growth rates in the next years. Given its recent high economic growth rates, which averaged 6.6% in the last three years, foreign analysts have sometimes labeled Serbia as the "Balkan Tiger". Apart from its free-trade agreement with the EU as its associate member, Serbia is the only European country outside the former USSR to have free trade agreements with the Russian Federation and, more recently, Belarus. Apart from its favorable economic agreements with both the East and West, such steps could be soon undertaken with Turkey and Iran. By doing this Serbia hopes to set up an export-oriented economy. Blue-chip corporations investing in Serbia include: US Steel, Philip Morris, Microsoft, Fiat, CocaCola, Lafarge, Siemens, Carlsberg and others. In the energy, Russian giants Lukoil and Gazprom have invested heavily. The banking sector has attracted investments from Banca Intesa Italy, Crdit Agricole and Socit Gnrale France, HVB Bank Germany, Erste Bank Austria, Eurobank EFG and Piraeus Bank Greece, and others. U.S. based Citibank, opened a representative office in Belgrade in December 2006. In the trade sector, biggest foreign investors are France's Intermarche, German Metro Cash & Carry, Greek Veropoulos, and Slovenian Mercator. Serbia grows about onethird of the world's raspberries and is the leading frozen fruit exporter.
