Georgia's economy grew by 7.9% year‑on‑year in January 2026, exceeding market expectations.
Georgia's economy expanded by 7.9% year‑on‑year in January 2026, above market expectations, following 7.2% year‑on‑year growth in December 2025. The growth was mainly driven by strong activity in the ICT, financial & insurance, hotels & restaurants, and mining sectors. In contrast, the construction and trade sectors contracted in January 2026. This robust growth adds pressure on inflation and monetary policy, constituting an economic threat in terms of macroeconomic stability and potential overheating risks.
