The latest available annual WDI observation in this response is 2.90% for 2025, compared with 3.11% for 2024. The difference is -0.21 percentage points. This identifies the most recent reported year, rather than substituting today’s date for a missing annual release.
How to read this series
Real GDP growth measures the annual percentage change in constant-price output. It is a growth rate, not GDP in US dollars, economic size, GDP per person, or an investment return.
Qatar figures retain the World Bank indicator’s annual reporting basis. Check the original series metadata and national release when comparing a calendar-year value with Egypt’s fiscal-year national accounts.
Aggregate GDP growth does not identify individual sector contributions.
Annual publication and retrieval dates can differ from the year measured. The chart, table and historical downloads use eligible World Bank observations. The outlook and policy and FX scenarios use separately labelled estimates, projections and assumptions.

FROM SOURCE TO MODEL
Use this series in a financial model
Keep the economic observation, your model assumption and the reason for using it as separate fields.
Shared cached response
Last source check: 2026-11-11T21:43:55.717Z. A successful check does not make an older observation a current-period value.
Build an assumption you can explain
- Retain the source. Download the assumption log, keep an unchanged copy and record the vintage used in your model. CSV imports through Excel’s Data → From Text/CSV; choose UTF-8 and check the decimal separator.
- Make the modelling decision. Select relevant reference rows and fill the blank model input, model period, assumption value, unit, rationale and review date. No source value is automatically assigned as a forecast.
- Check the economic link. CPI need not equal company pricing or cost growth; GDP growth need not equal revenue growth. Explain pass-through, business exposure and timing. Percentage-point changes differ from percentage changes.
- Review before refreshing. Downloads use the current response, which may be cached or a dated fallback. Refreshing can revise history and does not preserve your edited assumption log. This is a browser download, not a verified live Excel connection.
One row per eligible historical observation, original values and provenance, a separately labelled value ÷ 100 conversion, and blank analyst decisions. Excel has finite numeric precision; retain the original CSV or JSON for exact reproduction.

Download and cite this data
Download historical annual observations with source codes, units, observation years and the response’s own retrieval and provider dates. CSV and JSON retain source precision; the page rounds displayed values for reading. No missing value is interpolated and no forecast is added to historical observations.
A later source refresh can change a download’s vintage. Keep its retrieval date when reproducing an analysis. Third-party data retain their original terms.
