Economy and Industry

AMRO sustains Cambodia's GDP growth of 6.2% The ASEAN+3 Macroeconomic Research Office (AMRO) forecasts a robust 6.2% growth for Cambodia in 2024, the second-highest in the region. Stable inflation at 3.1% is anticipated. The country's reliance on tourism, impacted by the pandemic, is expected to rebound, contributing to service export growth. Despite challenges, AMRO projects a full recovery to pre-COVID-19 tourism levels in 2024. AMRO maintains a 4.5% growth forecast for the broader ASEAN+3 region, citing strong domestic demand, moderate inflation, and improved trade. The World Bank predicts Cambodia's economy to grow at 5.8% in 2024 and 6.1% in 2025. However, challenges in transport, logistics, and energy supply persist, imposing high costs on businesses and consumers. (Source: Khmer Times)

Cambodia's 2023 exports to the EU decreased by 9.3% In 2022, Cambodia's exports to the European Union (EU) amounted to $3.66 billion, reflecting a 9.9% decline from the previous year's $4.04 billion, as reported by the Ministry of Commerce. The overall trade between Cambodia and the EU totaled $4.61 billion, witnessing a 5.5% decrease compared to $4.85 billion in 2022. Imports from the EU to Cambodia increased by 16.9% YoY, reaching $949 million from $811 million in 2022. The country's trade surplus with the EU reduced to $2.71 billion from $3.23 billion in 2023. Notably, Germany emerged as Cambodia's leading EU trading partner, with trade turnover exceeding $1.01 billion, marking a 19.8% decrease. Germany also stood out as the primary EU buyer of Cambodian goods, followed by Spain, the Netherlands, France, and Spain. Cambodia's EU export share constituted 15.5% of its total exports valued at $23.60 billion. The decline in exports is attributed largely to the economic slowdown in the EU and the US, which are the two major markets for Cambodia-made products. (Source: Khmer Times)

A hospitality conglomerate says it will enter Siem Reap in 2024 Banyan Tree Holdings Limited, a Singaporean multinational hospitality group, is poised to launch 'Angsana Siem Reap,' a hotel and resort project in Cambodia under its 'Angsana' brand. Geared toward international guests exploring the UNESCO World Heritage Site, Angkor Wat Archaeological Park, and greater Siem Reap City, the resort is part of Banyan Group's ambitious 2024 expansion plan. This includes the addition of 19 new properties worldwide, such as 'Angsana Siem Reap' in Cambodia, and 18 new ventures in China, Japan, South Korea, Vietnam, and Mexico.
