Four measures. One perspective.

A NOTE ON THE NUMBERS

Read the figures in context.

Year columns and fiscal years differ

The IMF maps Myanmar’s FY(t−1/t) to WEO column t. The 2027 column therefore refers to FY2026/27, April 2026–March 2027.

Following the fiscal-calendar change in 2018, April–March reporting was restored from FY2021/22. Historical comparisons include IMF re-estimation.[1][2]

Actual-data cutoffs vary by indicator

The charts use the “latest actual annual data” field in IMF metadata as the cutoff. Subsequent values are estimates or projections.

  • Real GDP growthFY 2021/22
  • Fiscal balanceFY 2019/20
  • Current accountFY 2021/22
  • Consumer price inflationFY 2023/24
