The economy of the Balearic Islands is estimated to have grown at 4.1% in 2017. Looking ahead, regional GDP is expected to grow by 3.0% in 2018 and 2.6% in 2019. This would allow the creation of 36,000 new jobs and would reduce the unemployment rate to 7.1% at the end of 2019, very close to the historical low reached in 3Q16 (5.5%).
The economy of the Balearic Islands grew 3.2% in 2016, and will still grow 2.6% in 2017 and 2.5% in 2018, creating some 32,000 new jobs in those two years, although some external factors’ contribution shall slow down. Recovering pre-crisis per capita income, and creating more and better jobs remain as challenges.
