Denmark’s economic growth moderated in the fourth quarter of 2025, with gross domestic product (GDP) rising 3.0% year-over-year, down from a 4.0% increase recorded in the third quarter of 2025. The latest figures, updated on 20 February 2026, indicate a slowdown in the pace of expansion compared with the previous quarter’s annual comparison.
Both the current and previous readings are based on year-over-year changes, comparing each quarter’s performance with the same period a year earlier. While the economy continues to expand at a solid rate, the step down from 4.0% to 3.0% suggests that the peak momentum seen earlier in 2025 may be fading as Denmark moves into 2026. Investors and policymakers are likely to watch upcoming data closely for signs of whether this represents a temporary cooling or the start of a more sustained moderation in growth.
