Description
APEC is expected to remain resilient in 2025, reflecting strong trade performance and demand for high-tech goods. However, growth momentum is unlikely to be sustained in 2026 amid fading temporary drivers and tighter fiscal space. Inflation has eased across the region, creating room for accommodative monetary policy, yet elevated debt continues to limit fiscal capacity to support growth. Restoring confidence amid ongoing uncertainty will require sound economic management, transformative reforms, and deeper regional cooperation. Strengthened dialogue and multilateralism remain vital in revitalizing growth across the APEC region.
