The Dominican economy recorded cumulative growth of 2.1% between January and November 2025. This expansion was driven primarily by the agriculture and mining sectors, as well as financial intermediation services and hotels, bars, and restaurants, among others.
This performance reflects an improvement in the Monthly Economic Activity Indicator (IMAE) in November, which posted a year-on-year increase of 3.2%, according to data from the Central Bank of the Dominican Republic (BCRD).
In a press release issued today, the BCRD highlighted the recent acceleration of public investment, in line with the revised State budget for 2025, which is expected to support an economic recovery.
Modest growth
With the improvement recorded last month, the national economy rebounded from the 0.2% growth registered in October, bringing cumulative year-on-year growth for that period to 2.0%.
The economy faced challenges in achieving stronger growth during the first eleven months of 2025. The IMAE reached its highest level in March, when it recorded year-on-year growth of 5.4%, followed by November and May, the latter posting an expansion of 3.1%, according to the Central Bank’s statistical records.
