Taipei, July 18 -- Taiwan's economy is forecast to grow by 3.05 per cent in 2025, supported by strong export momentum in the first half of the year that is expected to ease in the latter half, according to the Chung-Hua Institution for Economic Research (CIER), reported Focus Taiwan.

According to the report, CIER projected GDP growth to slow to around 1.08 per cent in the second half of 2025, down from an estimated 5.17 per cent increase in the first half.
