When taking stock of the country’s main macroeconomic indicators, the Minister of Finance and Economy, Magín Díaz, said that for 2026 there are positive economic prospects in which it is projected that the Dominican Republic will return to its usual growth rate between 4.5 and 5% of the gross domestic product.
The official considered that the independent monetary policy carried out by the Central Bank in coordination with the fiscal policy led by the Ministry of Finance and Economy continues to be key to this panorama.
He explained that this positive projection has already been endorsed by the main international organizations in macroeconomic matters that have released their reports.
In this sense, in an interview on the program El Despertador de Color Visión, the official indicated that public investment has been increased in the last six months to encourage economic dynamism mainly through the execution of infrastructure works.
“The interest rate has been falling. The Central Bank has made liquidity available in the economy to move credits. That’s the monetary part. On the fiscal side, public investment spending has doubled in the last six months since we took office. That was one of the main objectives,” Díaz said.
As a result, he explained that capital expenditure will close around RD$200,000 million and it is expected that for next year it will continue its upward trend.
On a general level, he considered that 2025 has also been a stable year despite the internal and external conditions that influence the economic plane.
“At the macro level, it has been a reasonably good year given the international situation because no one thought in January that they were going to see this hecatomb of international markets with Trump’s geopolitical change in tariffs,” he contextualized.
In his speech, he also highlighted the strength of the national financial system, as well as the ample international reserves of the Central Bank, which are fundamental indicators to argue that there is no risk of a macroeconomic crisis in the country.
