Meanwhile, construction sector growth eased to 4.2% from 5.1%. Among the services sectors, wholesale and retail trade and transportation and storage advanced 3.9%, following a 3.7% expansion in Q3. On a quarterly basis, the economy grew 1.9%, after a 2.4% expansion in the previous quarter. For the full year, GDP advanced 4.8%, accelerating from 4.4% growth in 2024. The latest data release did not include any forecasts for 2026. The ministry had previously forecast 2026 GDP growth at 1.0% to 3.0%.
