Analysis by Region - Emerging Markets - Chile

Our 2025 GDP growth forecast remains unchanged at 2.4%, supported by resilient private consumption. Although we lowered the investment rebound forecast by 1ppt to 3% this year, reflecting weakened business confidence amid presidential elections, strong net trade performance in Q1 more than offset this. For 2026, we expect growth to slow slightly to 2.2%, due to an anticipated deterioration in the external trade sector amid a gloomy global outlook.
