In 2022, Monaco’s GDP was €8.34 billion, up from €7.29 billion in 2021. This represents an 11.1% increase from last year. As a reminder, GDP had already increased by 21.9% in 2021 and over the decade, GDP grew by an annual average of 4.6%.
As is the case every year, substantial differences in economic performance were noted across the different sectors. The GDP of ten out of 12 of the Major Economic Sectors in the Monegasque economy increased from last year, and 11 exceeded pre-pandemic levels.
The three largest sectors in terms of GDP remain unchanged. Nearly half of all wealth created in the Principality in 2022 (49.1%) comes from scientific and technical activities, administrative and support services; financial and insurance activities; and wholesale trade.
