The Bahamian economy experienced modest growth close to three percent in 2025, with expectations for 2026 being that the country’s growth rate will be similar to 2025, as the tourism outlook improves this year, Governor of The Central Bank of The Bahamas (CBOB) John Rolle said yesterday during the Central Bank’s quarterly press briefing.
“Based on the latest available indicators, the Bahamian economy is estimated to have grown at a slightly moderated pace in 2025, when compared to 2024,” said Rolle.
“Growth in tourism earnings supported the outcome, with pricing improvements bolstering otherwise capacity-constrained performance in the stopover market, alongside a sustained and robust expansion in cruise output.”
