Bulgaria's economy achieved record growth of 3% in 2015. This is the largest GDP growth in the past seven years after the global financial crisis, according to the National Statistics Institute. This growth is much higher than all previous estimates. According to the autumn forecast of the Ministry of Finance, GDP growth was expected to be only 2%. In 2015, the GDP totaled BGN 86,373 billion, or EUR 44,162 billion. This is EUR 6,136 per capita. The country's economy performed well throughout 2015.

The average growth in the first two quarters was 2.6% and 2.9% in the third quarter of 2015. The growth in the period from October to December amounted to BGN 23,699 billion or EUR 12,117 billion.
