Meanwhile, the World Bank put annual GDP growth in 2023 at 7.5%, which marked a soft slowdown from the previous year’s outturn. Booming industrial production seems to have been at the forefront of the expansion in 2023, having grown 9.5% annually in January–November. A smaller, yet robust, increase in agricultural output last year further cemented the upturn.
