Description

Our 2025 GDP growth forecast remains unchanged at 2.4%, with the consensus gradually converging toward our view. However, downside risks persist due to an unexpected slowdown in mining activity from maintenance at some sites and a recent accident that could reduce Codelco’s copper output by 25% in the coming months. We expect growth to ease slightly to 2.2%, maintaining our view that the external sector will weigh on momentum despite resilient domestic demand.
