Description

We've cut our 2025 GDP growth forecast for Latvia by 0.7ppts to just 0.5%, driven by the downside surprise in the Q1 data. However, a recovery started in Q2 and, in line with encouraging high-frequency data, we expect growth to gather momentum over the remainder of the year. At the same time, we think the residual uncertainty over the US-EU trade deal's details and weak activity in key trading partners will weigh on exports and investment, keeping a lid on the pace of expansion in the near term.
