European ECONOMIC OUTLOOK 2024/25/26 

ECONOMIC OUTLOOK - FORECAST for 2024 • 2025 • 2026

The Economic Outlook by EuCham innovates economic forecasting by consolidating and aggregating insights from numerous prominent studies and projections. 

By synthesizing the estimates of hundreds of economists and researchers from institutions like the IMF, World Bank, OECD, European Central Bank, European Commission, United Nations, and others, it creates a more robust and reliable predictive framework. This approach integrates often divergent and independent perspectives from various organizations, including those with access to unique or unofficial data, to deliver the most accurate assessments of future trends. 

The primary goal of the Economic Outlook of the European Chamber is to reduce uncertainty about the future, enabling both private and public entities to make informed decisions and better prepare for what lies ahead.
