Economic Sentiment in Slovenia Edges Up

Manufacturing and services show resilience despite global uncertainty

Slovenia’s economic sentiment indicator improved to –2.5 pp in August, up 0.8 points from July. While still below last year’s level, the increase reflects greater confidence among manufacturers, service providers, and consumers.

The bright spots came despite headwinds in retail and construction, where indicators weakened.

Analysts link the resilience to export markets stabilising and domestic demand benefiting from record tourism receipts.

Slovenia’s economy remains sensitive to broader European cycles. The uptick suggests that even small improvements in demand can restore optimism — an encouraging sign for a country heavily integrated into EU supply chains.
