Taiwan BIP Veränderung zum Vorjahr

Taiwan’s annual economic growth for the final quarter of 2024 was revised upward to 2.9% from an initial estimate of 1.84%, compared to a revised 4.21% expansion in the previous quarter. Private final consumption grew by 2.49%, while gross capital formation climbed by 19.2%. However, net external demand contributed negatively to the GDP, as double-digit growth in imports (18.31%) outpaced the rise in exports (8.9%). On the production side, activity slowed across several sectors, including manufacturing (6.36% vs 8.28% in Q3), construction (1.94% vs 2.84%), wholesale & retail trade (2.74% vs 4.56%), transportation & storage (0.4% vs 1.66%), and information & communication (2.44% vs 4.1%). On a seasonally adjusted quarterly basis, GDP grew by 6.64% in Q4, following a revised 2.38% rise in Q3. In 2024, the economic growth rate was 4.59%. Meanwhile, Taiwan has cut its 2025 GDP growth forecast to 3.14% from the 3.29% projected in November, amid concerns over U.S. tariff policies.
