Funcas ve señales de ralentización en la economía española por la persistencia de la inflación

Funcas, a savings bank foundation, has revised its macroeconomic forecasts for 2026-2028, signaling a gradual slowdown in Spain's economy beginning next year. The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is projected to expand by 2.5% this year, a tenth less than the government's expectation, and then slow to 1.8% in 2027 and 1.7% in 2028. This economic cooling is primarily due to the waning of inflationary pressures, rising interest rates, and a decline in momentum from sectors like tourism that have sustained activity in recent years.

Furthermore, the analysis center raises its annual inflation estimate to 3.7% for this year and 3.1% for the following year, a full percentage point higher than its previous calculations.
