Summary:	Israel came through the crisis relatively well, and unemployment has continued to fall to multi-decade lows. But policy makers are confronted with several challenges. The fiscal deficit remains stubbornly high, leaving limited buffers to respond to shocks. Inflation is negative---well below the Bank of Israel's (BOI) target---but housing prices continue to rise, posing financial sector risks. Labor productivity is low and the gap relative to the US is widening. And income inequality is among the highest across all advanced countries.
