How the 2026 forecast for Guyana changed

9 IMF World Economic Outlook rounds · April 2021 to April 2025

The IMF has published 9 World Economic Outlook rounds carrying a projection for Guyana in 2026, running from April 2021 to April 2025. Each round restates the same year, so the distance between the first estimate and the latest is a record of how the institution changed its mind.

Real GDP growth for 2026 was first put at 3.0% in April 2021 and stands at 23.0% as of April 2025, a total revision of 19.9% raised. The single largest move came between April 2022 and October 2022, when the projection shifted by 21.8%.

Across the same rounds, inflation (average cpi) raised from 3.1% to 4.4%; government gross debt lowered from 40.9 % of GDP to 28.4 % of GDP; current account balance raised from 11.2 % of GDP to 14.9 % of GDP; and gdp, current prices raised from $12.6bn to $28.2bn.

Rounds that did not carry an indicator are omitted rather than interpolated, so a shorter path means fewer published estimates. Guyana overview · methodology
