Venezuela's economy is projected to grow by over 9% in 2024, according to President Nicolás Maduro, as reported in a recent interview.
In 2023, growth was recorded at 5.5%, indicating an upward trend in the nation’s gross domestic product.
Maduro highlighted a significant rise in the real economy and the hydrocarbons sector contributing to this growth.
The country has struggled with triple-digit inflation and a mass exodus of citizens in search of better opportunities.
Though economic reforms, including informal dollarization, have been implemented, analysts argue these measures have not fully revitalized the economy.
