Analysis# Suriname Real GDP Growth
Suriname's real GDP growth stands at 3.7% in 2026, reflecting moderate economic expansion following recent volatility.

Peak performance occurred in 1995 at 11.3%, while a severe contraction of -16% struck in 2020—the lowest point in the dataset.

This recovery trajectory indicates renewed economic stability, with forecasts pointing toward continued moderate expansion through 2026.
