Understand the numbers
What Libya's economic profile is telling you
Libya's 2025 World Bank series shows a sharp rebound in real GDP alongside high modeled unemployment. The WTO profile still exposes old merchandise import data for 2019, so no current trade balance is presented.
Reading the macro data
Nominal GDP measures current-dollar size. Real growth, inflation and unemployment describe different economic conditions and can have different reference years.
Reading the trade data
Merchandise trade covers goods. A balance appears only when exports and imports have a verified matching year and currency basis.
