EDB assesses factors driving Armenia’s GDP growth in 2026 – macro review

YEREVAN, February 16. /ARКА/. According to EDB forecasts, Armenia’s GDP will grow by 5.3% in 2026.

“The main factor in maintaining high economic growth rates is domestic consumer and investment demand, supported by increased savings and lending activity. Inflation will stabilize around the target level of 3±1% and reach 3.3% by the end of 2026,” the EDB macro review states.

It is noted that the Armenian national currency (dram) is expected to average 393 drams per dollar for the year due to rising imports driven by strong domestic demand.
