Chile's economic activity has continued to exhibit a downward trend, as reflected by a significant drop to 1.2% in November 2025, according to the latest figures updated on January 2, 2026. This marks a month-over-month decrease from October 2025, where the previous indicator was recorded at 2.2%. The year-over-year comparison, which contrasts November's activity with the same month from the previous year, signals a concerning deceleration in growth.

The diminishing rate is stirring conversations among economic analysts and policymakers, as it evidences a potential need for strategic adjustments. October's figure of 2.2% also represented a slowdown, making November's further decline more pronounced. Those tracking the performance of Chile's economic indicators are increasingly alert to these patterns, prompting discussions about their implications for monetary policy and fiscal measures forthcoming.

As Chile navigates this economic phase, stakeholders across various sectors remain closely engaged in evaluating both the internal and external factors influencing this decline. The challenges posed by this sustained lower growth could impact future projections and strategizing at both the national level and across private enterprises in the region.
