In plain words
6.5% y/y
What it is. Real GDP growth is the yearly change in the total value of goods and services produced inside Côte d’Ivoire, calculated at constant prices so that price rises are removed and the figure follows the volume of output. The World Bank national accounts supply the annual series, and quarterly national releases are a separate indicator. The measure says nothing about how income is shared, and it leaves out unpaid household work and the depletion of natural resources.
Higher is better. Faster growth means the economy is producing more, which creates room for more jobs, higher incomes and larger tax receipts, so a higher figure is better. The latest reading for 2025 is 6.5% y/y, up 0.48 percentage points from 6% y/y in 2024. Since 2016 the series has ranged from a low of 0.7% y/y in 2020 to a high of 7.4% y/y in 2017. The 2025 figure sits in the upper part of that range and close to its peak.
Why it matters. Growth of 6.5% y/y means the Ivorian economy is adding output at a pace that can lift average incomes if it stays ahead of population growth. Businesses face expanding demand, and the government has a growing base of activity to tax. The 2020 low of 0.7% y/y shows how far growth can drop in a bad year, so the next annual reading will show whether this pace holds.
