UN Report: Tunisia's Economy to Grow 1.5% in 2025 and 1.9% in 2026
According to the United Nations' report titled "Global Economic Situation and Prospects 2025," Tunisia is expected to post a GDP growth rate of 1.5% in 2025 and 1.9% in 2026.
Despite the resilience of the Tunisian economy, similar to the global economy, the levers for marked growth have not been implemented. However, the decline in inflation, particularly the relative decrease in prices of essential goods, is a positive trend to observe.
Although our economy is resisting, it is not yet out of the woods. It is essential to focus on creating wealth by increasing investments and ensuring a favorable political climate, especially in a world shaken by conflicts and natural disasters.
The report concludes by advising that commercial exchanges and heavy indebtedness, which hinder the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals, need to be rethought.
Referring to geopolitical conflicts, rising trade tensions, and high borrowing costs in many regions of the world, UN Secretary-General António Guterres stated in the report's foreword, "Countries cannot ignore these risks. In our interconnected economy, upheavals at one end of the world drive up prices at the other end. Every country is concerned and must be part of the solution, building on the progress made."
