About this indicator
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) measures the total value of all final goods and services produced within a country in a given year. It is a broad indicator of the size of an economy and its overall level of economic activity. It captures the outcome of economic activity by households, businesses and the government.
GDP growth forecast for 2027 shows the projected annual percentage change in real GDP over the next year. Unlike historical GDP growth figures, which report realized outcomes once data are available, this indicator reflects expectations published in international macroeconomic outlooks. As a one-year-ahead projection, it is subject to uncertainty and may be revised as new data become available and outlook editions are updated.
The projected growth rates are expressed in real terms (constant prices), meaning they are adjusted for inflation. They therefore represent expected changes in the volume of economic output, not movements driven by price changes alone.
