SARAJEVO, Dec. 29 (Xinhua) -- Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) recorded slow but stable economic growth in 2025, with gross domestic product (GDP) growth estimated at between 2.4 percent and 2.8 percent, according to the latest data from the Central Bank of BiH and the International Monetary Fund.

While export growth slowed, domestic demand remained the main driver of economic expansion, supported by rising wages, stronger consumption, and sustained construction activity, particularly in infrastructure projects.

Inflationary pressures intensified after easing slightly in 2024, with average annual inflation ranging from 3.6 percent to 4.3 percent, driven mainly by higher food and energy prices as well as wage- and pension-led consumption.

Public debt remained at a moderate level, estimated at around 35 percent to 40 percent of GDP, while foreign direct investment continued to stay at relatively modest levels.
