Strong and growing economy, but an ageing population raises concerns regarding fiscal stability.




Imports to the Faroe Islands have decreased more than exports, resulting in an increased positive balance of trade




• The US has introduced historically high import tariffs, ranging from 10% to 54%. International trade will be negatively impacted, which is especially detrimental to small, open economies.
• Exports are down approximately 8% from peak levels in 2023 at DKK 12.5bn due to lower catch volumes (pelagic) and lower salmon prices.
•Significant deficits ought not to occur in a period when the economy is firing on all cylinders. The Faroes are facing long-term challenges (pensions) due to an ageing population.
• Overall confidence is 8, which is lower than the long term average of 14. Construction confidence is down, due to lower demand while confidence within Services is marginally up.
Moderate economic growth, new airport opened in Nuuk, but structural challenges remain.
