Another good result.

S&P Global Ratings confirm our country’s rating and give us a stable outlook, as they believe our newly elected administration will prioritise protecting families and businesses from the effects of the global economic slowdown. - RA

The positive certificates keep coming.

Eurostat today show Malta's GDP growth in 2026 Q1 as 4.3%.

Once again we are best in class. Growing at a rate 14 times the euro area average.

Progressive policies are the best economic recipe. - RA

While growth in the euro area fell to just 0.8% in 2026 Q1, Malta’s economy grew by 3.9%, or by about 5 times as much.

Growth exceeded the projections made by the Commission and other international institutions.

Moreover workers’ income rose by twice the GDP growth rate. - RA
