  "account": "DBS Group research economist Ma Tieying has raised Taiwan's GDP growth forecast for 2026 to 11.6% from the previous 9.4%, signaling the strongest pace in more than three decades. The forecast for 2027 has also been revised upward to 5.6% from 4.5%. The report attributes the strong growth to a narrowing of the K-shaped divergence, promising AI-driven prospects, and a transition toward steadier growth with a modest rate hike in late 4Q.",
