Analysis# Cambodia Real GDP Growth
Cambodia's real GDP growth stands at 4% in 2026, reflecting a significant deceleration from its all-time peak of 13.3% in 2005. The country has experienced a net decline of 58.3 percentage points since 1988, marking a substantial shift in economic expansion rates over nearly four decades. Despite current moderate growth, Cambodia remains considerably below the double-digit expansion that characterized the mid-2000s.
The 2020 financial crisis delivered the sharpest contraction on record at -3.6%, followed by a gradual recovery beginning in 2021. Growth rebounded to 5-6% annually from 2022 through 2024 but is projected to cool further to 4% by 2026. This downward trajectory suggests Cambodia's economy is stabilizing at lower growth rates, reflecting both maturation of previous development gains and ongoing structural adjustments in the regional economy.
