What Myanmar's economic profile is telling you

Myanmar's current World Bank series shows a 2.0 percent real contraction in 2025. The CPI field available on the country profile is much older, from 2019, so it is labeled explicitly rather than treated as current. Matched 2024 WTO merchandise data show exports above imports.

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.
