The Independent Authority for Fiscal Responsibility (AIReF) endorses the forecasts accompanying the draft budget of Asturias for 2026. The document sets out growth projections in the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in real terms, of the implicit GDP deflator and employment for the period 2025–2028, which differ from the Spanish Government’s macroeconomic scenario for the country as a whole.
For 2026, Asturias estimates GDP growth in real terms of 1.7%. This forecast is similar to AIReF’s forecast of 1.8% and lies below the range of other agencies’ forecasts for the region.
