Steady Growth and Strong Investment Confidence Mark 2025 Outlook

With an expected 4% economic growth in 2025, the country continues to position itself as one of the most resilient economies in the region. Minister of Economy Carlos Fernández Valdovinos highlighted that Paraguay has fully secured its financing needs for the year, reinforcing its stability amid global economic uncertainties.

A key milestone was the successful issuance of USD 1.2 billion in bonds in New York, attracting demand seven times higher than expected, a strong sign of investor confidence. The combination of local bond issuances and financing from multilateral organizations, including the IMF and IDB, has strengthened financial stability, contributing to an improved investment-grade credit rating.

In addition, Paraguay will host the IDB Board of Governors meeting in 2026, bringing together over 3,000 global financial leaders. This event will serve as a platform to showcase its economic potential and leadership in sustainable development in the region. Source: UH
