AndorraChapitres
Andorra has a developed economy and a free market, with per capita income above the European average and above the level of its neighbors, Spain and France. The country has developed a sophisticated infrastructure including a one-of-a-kind micro-fiber-optic network for the entire country. Tourism, retail sales, and finance comprise more than three-quarters of GDP.
To provide incentives for growth and diversification in the economy, the Andorran government began sweeping economic reforms in 2006. The Parliament approved three laws to complement the first phase of economic openness: on Companies (October 2007), on business accounting (December 2007), and on Foreign Investment (April 2008 and June 2012). From 2011 to 2015, the Parliament also approved direct taxes in the form taxes on corporations, on individual incomes of residents and non-residents, and on capital gains, savings, and economic activities. These regulations aim to establish a transparent, modern, and internationally comparable regulatory framework.

Indicateurs macroéconomiques
The Andorra economy continues to be resilient and to grow above its long-term potential. Growth in 2024 surprised on the upside at 2.1 percent, driven by the service, banking and construction sectors. Inflation is subsiding gradually, reaching 2.6 percent at the end of 2024, despite limited economic slack and a tight labor market. The current account surplus remains very large, estimated at 15.1 percent of GDP in 2024. The strong performance of banks continued in 2024 supported by high interest margins and increased fees and commissions.
Going forward, GDP is expected to converge and stabilize at its long-term potential of 1.5 percent. Inflation is projected to decline to 2 percent by the end of 2025, in line with price developments in neighboring countries. In the short term, risks to the outlook are balanced. Downside risks are largely related to uncertainty in the global economy. On the upside, Andorra, like other service-oriented economies in Europe, could benefit from stronger demand, and grow faster than projected. Solid buffers mitigate risks, notably a strong fiscal position, a large current account surplus, and well-capitalized and liquid banks.
Challenges are concentrated over the medium term, as stagnating GDP per capita makes it challenging to address the impact of population aging and climate change. Bottlenecks in the housing and labor markets could have a negative impact on growth. However, greater economic diversification, higher investment and productivity would support growth over the medium term. The adoption of the EU Association Agreement could offer an opportunity to support the reform momentum and contribute to diversification, but would also bring challenges.
