What Antigua and Barbuda's economic profile is telling you

Antigua and Barbuda posted real GDP growth of 5.0% in 2025, with nominal GDP of about $2.34 billion and inflation of 1.4%. The World Bank does not currently provide the modeled unemployment series used for most countries.

Services make up well over two-thirds of value added. Merchandise imports were much larger than exports in 2024, which is consistent with an economy where goods trade is only one part of the broader external picture.

The main economic signal

The profile is defined by rapid recent growth, a services-heavy domestic economy, low measured inflation, and a large merchandise import gap.

Why the definitions matter

Nominal GDP, real growth, CPI inflation, unemployment, sector value added, government debt and merchandise trade measure different things. This page keeps their units, years and sources visible instead of blending them into one synthetic score.
