In 2020, Albania's GDP declined 3.5 percent, after a 2.1 percent expansion in 2019 due to Covid-19. Albania’s growth was robust in 2021 and averaged 10.4 percent over the first three quarters, fully offsetting the losses caused by the pandemic-induced recession, according to World Bank. The World Bank projects economic activity to expand at its pre-pandemic, pre-earthquake historical rate in 2022. However, the war in Ukraine could further increase inflation, disrupt supply chains, disturb financial markets and undermine confidence; all of which could dim Albania’s growth prospects. source: Instituti i Statistikave (INSTAT)
