Summary

Real GDP growth is expected to strengthen further in 2025 after a moderate recovery in 2024. Supportive policies and recovering real incomes will boost private domestic demand as inflation has been successfully brought under control. Real GDP growth is projected to rise to 1.9 percent in 2025. However, the external environment is turning less supportive, amid ongoing geo-economic fragmentation, while slower productivity growth and an aging population are dampening potential growth.
