Cyprus has the strongest growth in the Eurozone
Cyprus recorded a 4.5% GDP growth rate in the fourth quarter of 2025, significantly surpassing the Eurozone average of 1.3%.
In the fourth quarter of 2025, Cyprus experienced a remarkable 4.5% growth in its economy on a year-over-year basis, which is significantly higher than the Eurozone average of 1.3% and the EU average of 1.5%. For the entire year of 2025, the growth rate for the Cypriot economy is estimated at 3.75%, exceeding previous forecasts made by the Ministry of Finance and other domestic and international agencies, which had predicted an increase between 2.9% and 3.5%. This strong performance underlines Cyprus's economic resilience despite a backdrop of heightened global uncertainty, with indications of low inflation and conditions of full employment. Meanwhile, the Eurozone's growth was modest in the same period, as reported by Eurostat, with a 0.3% increase in GDP compared to the previous quarter and a 1.3% annual increase for the fourth quarter, reaffirming earlier estimates.
