GUS: Polish economy grew 4% y/y in Q4 ‘25
Poland’s economy grew by 4% y/y in the fourth quarter of 2025, according to a preliminary estimate from the Central Statistical Office (GUS), exceeding analysts’ expectations of 3.9%. Growth accelerated from 3.8% in the previous quarter and remained among the highest in the EU, where the average was 1.4%. Seasonally adjusted GDP rose 1% q/q.
Economists note this marks the eighth consecutive quarter of stable expansion, driven mainly by strong private consumption supported by rising real wages, as well as solid public spending and moderate investment growth. Improved foreign trade also contributed. The strong year-end performance creates a positive “carry-over effect” of about 1.4 percentage points for 2026, increasing the likelihood of continued robust economic growth.
