GDP, Istat: ‘Growth stable in Q3, +0.4% year-on-year’

Milan, 30 Oct. (LaPresse) – In the third quarter of 2025, Istat estimates that gross domestic product (GDP), expressed in chained values with reference year 2020, adjusted for calendar effects and seasonally adjusted, remained unchanged compared to the previous quarter. GDP is estimated to have grown by 0.4% in trend terms, slowing down compared to the first two quarters of 2025. The economic change, Istat adds, is the result of an increase in added value in the agriculture, forestry and fishing sectors, a decrease in industry and stagnation in services. On the demand side, there is a negative contribution from the domestic component (gross of inventories) and a positive contribution from the net foreign component. The change for 2025 is 0.5%.
