Bahrain’s economy is on the rise, with the country’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growing steadily in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period last year. The latest figures released by the Information & eGovernment Authority (iGA) show that the GDP increased by 2.7% when adjusted for inflation, and by 3.0% when measured in current prices.
This growth comes from both oil and non-oil sectors. Oil activities grew by 5.3% after adjusting for inflation, and by 4.6% at current prices. Meanwhile, non-oil activities also saw a healthy rise of 2.2% and 2.8% at constant and current prices, respectively.
Among the non-oil sectors, accommodation and food services led the way with a strong growth rate of 10.3%. Financial and insurance services followed with a growth of 7.5%, and construction activities grew by 5.4% at constant prices.
These positive trends reflect Bahrain’s ongoing efforts to diversify its economy and create a balanced mix of industries contributing to the country’s progress.
