BAKU, Azerbaijan, January 25. The United
Nations has projected that Georgia’s economy will maintain steady
growth over the next two years, Trend reports via the World Economic Situation and
Prospects 2026 report.
The United Nations has forecasted that the real Gross Domestic
Product of Georgia is anticipated to experience a growth trajectory
of 5.4% in the year 2026. For the fiscal year 2027, projections
indicate a growth trajectory of 5%, whereas the United Nations
anticipates a vigorous expansion rate of 7.5% for the year
2025.
Meanwhile, the Dutch ING Group and local analysts have provided
slightly different figures. ING expects a stronger 6.0% growth in
2026, supported by a recovery in tourism and domestic consumption,
while the Georgian government’s own 2026 budget is based on a more
conservative 5% target.
On December 31, 2025, the government reported that international
reserves reached a record $5.8 billion, providing a buffer against
regional volatility. Finance Minister Lasha Khutsishvili,
presenting the final 2026 state budget this week, noted that
nominal GDP per capita is expected to exceed $11,300 this year, up
from approximately $10,000 in 2025.
