[OECD Predicts South Korea's Potential Growth Rate to Hit a Historic Low in 2027] According to a report by Jinse Finance on June 7, citing Yonhap News Agency, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) stated on Sunday that despite the semiconductor industry's boom driving strong growth in South Korea's exports, the country's potential growth rate is expected to drop to a historic low next year. The latest OECD data shows that South Korea's potential economic growth rate in 2027 is projected to be 1.52%, a significant decline from this year's 1.66%. On a quarterly basis, South Korea's potential economic growth rate is expected to further decrease to 1.46% in the fourth quarter of next year. If this occurs, it will mark the first time since the OECD began publishing such data that South Korea's projected potential growth rate falls below 1.5%.
