Private and public consumption are set to grow moderately, while exports and imports will both increase by around 4–5%. Unemployment is projected to drop further to 8.6%, the lowest level since 2008. Nominal GDP is expected to reach €260.9 billion in 2026, up from €249.6 billion in 2025. Inflation is predicted to ease to 2.2% from this year’s 2.6%.
