Timor-Leste's economy projected to grow 5% this year
Timor-Leste's economy to grow 5% in 2026, with risks of high reliance on public spending and sustained trade deficit.
Timor-Leste’s economy is expected to grow 5% in 2026, supported by improved budget execution, stronger private sector activity and structural reforms, according to the central bank report. However, risks include heavy reliance on public spending, limited private investment and export diversification, leading to sustained trade and current account deficits. The fully dollarized economy remains vulnerable to external shocks, and continued withdrawals from the Petroleum Fund threaten long-term fiscal sustainability.
