Slovenia’s gross domestic product expanded by 2% year-on-year in the fourth quarter of 2025, slightly higher than the upwardly revised 1.9% growth in the previous three-month period.
This marked the strongest expansion since the first quarter of 2024, boosted by faster rise in household consumption (3% vs 1.3% in Q3) and government spending (3.8% vs 1.2%).
Additionally, fixed investments (12% vs 10%) increased further, mainly driven by growth in buildings and facilities.
Meanwhile, net trade contributed negatively to the GDP.
Exports rose modestly by 0.5% (vs -0.4%), while imports jumped 4.8% (vs 1.7%), with goods imports up 5.4% and services imports up 1.6%.
On a seasonally adjusted quarterly basis, the economy grew by 0.4% in the fourth quarter, marking the softest growth since the third quarter of 2024 and easing from an slightly upwardly revised 0.9% rise in the preceding quarter.
For the full year 2025, GDP rose 1.1%, down from 1.7% in 2024.
