<p>The Palestinian economy continues to face a number of challenges, including the
restrictions imposed by the occupation. The International Money Fund estimates that
in the medium term growth is likely to be in the region of 2-3 per cent. If restrictions
of the occupation were lifted, it is estimated that growth could be in the region
of 7-9 per cent. We continue to support economic growth in the Occupied Palestinian
Territories through the Palestinian Market Development Programme which assists companies
to develop new products and enter new markets.</p>
