WELLINGTON - New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said on Monday that the country’s gross domestic product is expected to slow to around 2% to 2.5% this year, due to the economic impact of the coronavirus epidemic. Ardern said the forecasts were from the treasury which had previously predicted a GDP growth of 2.2% to 2.8%. She said the impact will be seen in the first two quarters of the year.Reporting by Praveen Menon; Editing by Himani Sarkar
