Greece Balance of Trade

Balance of Trade Improves in GR for September 2025 September’s Balance of Trade Shows Narrower Deficit The Balance of Trade, which measures the difference between a country’s exports and imports, is a key indicator of economic health. For GR, September’s report revealed a deficit of 2.10 billion EUR, improving from August’s 2.90 billion EUR shortfall. This narrower gap suggests a modest recovery in export strength or reduced import demand. Fast facts: year-over-year deficit improved by 30%, month-over-month deficit narrowed by 0.80 billion EUR, and the data was released on October 8, 2025. Economists at Morgan Stanley noted that “GR’s trade deficit contraction aligns with recent export growth and cautious consumer spending amid global uncertainties.” The improvement may ease some pressure on the country’s external accounts, though challenges remain as global demand fluctuates and energy prices stay volatile.
