The Solomon Islands government projects real GDP growth of 2.7% in 2026, underpinned by stronger performance in mining, agriculture, fishing, and business services. Mining, especially gold and nickel production alongside higher commodity prices, is expected to lead the expansion. Agriculture and fisheries are targeted for transformation and higher-value exports, supported by government-backed financing initiatives. Inflation is forecast to ease to 3.5–4.0%, down from 5.0–6.0% in 2022–2024, reflecting more stable domestic and external conditions. The outlook also highlights revenue increases from customs and domestic taxes tied to expanding mineral output.
