The World Bank's Maldives Development Update (June 2026) reviews the Maldivian economy through 2025 and assesses the medium-term outlook. Real GDP growth reached an estimated 6.3 percent in 2025 while CPI inflation averaged 4.0 percent. The fiscal balance narrowed to an estimated -4.3 percent of GDP, but public debt remained very high at an estimated 129.7 percent of GDP, and the report projects growth to fall sharply to 0.7 percent in 2026 amid tourism disruptions, with inflation rising and debt-distress risk remaining high.
