Euro Zone economic growth slowed slightly at the end of 2025, with gross domestic product expanding by 1.2% year-over-year in the fourth quarter, down from a previously recorded 1.4% in the same period. Both the current and previous readings relate to the fourth quarter of 2025, reflecting updated calculations released on 06 March 2026.
The data are presented on a year-over-year basis, comparing the fourth quarter’s performance with the corresponding quarter a year earlier. The latest update indicates that the Euro Zone’s expansion was a touch weaker than initially measured, suggesting a modest loss of momentum as the region closed out 2025. Investors and policymakers will be watching subsequent releases closely to assess whether this softer growth pace persists into 2026.
