Philippinen BIP Veränderung zum Vorjahr

The Philippines’ GDP grew by 4.4% year-on-year in Q3 2025, missing expectations of a 5.2% expansion and slowing from 5.5% in the previous quarter. This marked the weakest economic growth since the contraction in Q1 2021, as the recent infrastructure scandal curbed public spending and a series of typhoons disrupted activity. Growth slowed sharply for government spending (5.8% vs 8.7% in Q2) and household consumption (4.1% vs 5.3%), while fixed investments barely expanded (0.1% vs 3.1%). Meanwhile, net trade contributed positively to overall GDP, with exports rising 7% (vs 4.7%) and imports growing at a softer 2.6% (vs 3.5%). On the production side, activity weakened across all major sectors, including agriculture, forestry, and fishing (2.8% vs 7%), industry (0.7% vs 2.1%), and services (5.5% vs 7%). The latest GDP print also came in below the government’s 5.5% to 6.5% target range.
