Costa Rica’s economy grew weakly in 2025

San Jose, Nov 4 (Prensa Latina) Costa Rica's economy has maintained growth so far this year, although signs of weakness persist, the Central Bank noted in its Monetary Policy Report for the period.

The shortcomings in national production during the period are located in some components of spending and in certain activities, the financial institution’s report specified.

Economic activity registered a year-on-year increase of 4.5 percent during the third quarter of 2025, higher than both the figure observed in the same period of 2024 (4.2 percent) and the previous quarter (4.3 percent), the document added.

The increase was concentrated in essential services such as housing, health, financial services, transportation, and food supply.

According to the agency, private consumption reversed the slowdown that began in 2024 in the third quarter of 2025, reaching 3.7 percent growth, due to the performance of gross national disposable income and increased credit granted to households.
