What Argentina's economic profile is telling you

Argentina returned to strong real growth in 2025, with World Bank GDP of about $683.10 billion and growth of 4.4%. The latest World Bank annual CPI figure is still the 2024 reading of 219.9%, so the inflation year is deliberately shown separately.

Argentina recorded a merchandise trade surplus in 2024. Brazil was the largest export destination, while agricultural products, energy and manufactured goods all feature in the export mix.

The main economic signal

The main story is a rebound in real activity alongside an inflation backdrop that remains the defining macroeconomic risk, even as merchandise trade stayed in surplus.

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.
