Cyprus economy shows slower growth in the third quarter

Cyprus reported an annual economic growth of 3.1 per cent for the third quarter of 2026, a slight deceleration from the 3.4 per cent recorded in the previous quarter. The growth was primarily supported by sectors such as retail trade, finance, construction, and information technology. While the economy continues to expand, the latest quarterly increase of 0.5 per cent reflects a moderation in momentum compared to the 1.2 per cent rise observed in the April-to-June period.
