SEB forecasts that the opening of the Strait of Hormuz will have a moderately positive impact on the global economy. According to the bank’s projections, the Eurozone is expected to grow by 0.8% this year, while Estonia is projected to grow by 2.5%. This growth in Estonia is anticipated to be driven by consumer spending and state investments.

SEB anticipates a slight interest rate increase across Europe and a potential interest rate decline in the US by the end of the year. Furthermore, the bank’s economic forecast indicates that Estonia will recover in 2026, achieving a growth rate of 2.5%, irrespective of an uncertain external environment. The primary drivers supporting this projected growth in Estonia include the recovery of private consumption and increased investments.

However, the SEB economic forecast also points to persistent challenges in the manufacturing sector and a need for new growth models as long-term impediments to development. Overall, the projections suggest a measured recovery trajectory for the Estonian economy, supported by domestic spending and investment, while acknowledging structural weaknesses in industry.
