The World Bank expects economic growth across 11 Pacific Island nations to slow to 2.8% in 2026. Growth slowed to an estimated 3.2% in 2024 and 2025, down from 6.5% in 2023. This slowdown matters because rising import costs and slowing tourism momentum threaten fiscal stability in a region highly sensitive to global energy shocks.
