The currency crisis of 2011 has revealed the limits of the Belarusian economic model. On the hand, it became obvious even to the majority conservative government officials that changes in economic policy are required.
On the other hand, the resurgence of oil exports in the first half of 2012 allowed the government to avoid necessary reforms. The economy finishes this year with a low output increase rate, but fragile macroeconomic stability is achieved.

The Belarusian government may obtain a loan from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in 2013, Nadzeya Yermakova, chief of the National Bank of Belarus, said on Wednesday, BelaPAN said.
"The IMF leadership does not reject the possibility of a new program being implemented," the government's news agency BelTA quoted her as saying. "However, we have from now on to do considerable work to devise and agree on the terms of a loan program with the Fund with consideration for Belarus' interests, and receive broad support from the Executive Board."
