Asia-Pacific Economy: Resilient Growth Ahead

Description

Despite global tensions and trade tariffs, the Asia-Pacific region is projected to maintain robust economic growth through 2026, with real growth slightly decreasing to 3.1% in 2026. This region, a major global economic driver, is bolstered by significant investments in technology and AI, with three-quarters of foreign investment coming from within the region. Asian nations are strengthening regional ties and diversifying economies to mitigate external risks. However, growth in Southeast Asia may be uneven, with Indonesia and the Philippines expanding while Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand might slow down. Thailand faces a demographic challenge due to an aging population and low birth rates. The rising middle class and increased consumer spending, particularly in Indonesia, will continue to fuel growth, boosting tourism and creating new opportunities.
