*Nicaragua’s central bank (BCN) has released new figures showing that the country’s exports totalled US$6.81bn in the first nine months of 2025, up 15.8% on the same period the previous year. Growth was driven by a 27.6% increase in goods exports and a 1.6% increase in free zone goods. Goods exports in turn were driven by a 49.2% increase in mining exports (which totalled US$1.46bn), and a 43.1% rise in agriculture exports (US$1.12bn).  Meanwhile total imports reached US$8.52bn in the first nine months of the year, up 6.2% on the previous year. This resulted in a trade deficit of US$1.70bn in the first nine months of 2025, down 20.2% on the same period in 2024.
