BLOM PMI - Expansions in output and new orders accelerate in November

Commenting on the November 2025 BLOM Lebanon PMI, Dr. Fadi Osseiran, General Manager at BLOMINVEST Bank, said:

"The BLOM Lebanon PMI rose to 51.3 in November, from 50.6 in October, its fourth straight month in expansion. Growth was driven by record-high new order growth, matching September's peak, which supported output and reflected higher spending ahead of the Pope's December visit and the stronger access to foreign markets. Yet, the outlook remains fragile. The 12-month outlook index recorded 40.1, firmly in pessimistic territory, for the sixth month in a row, amid fears of an escalation in Israel-Hezbollah tensions. Indeed, in November, Israel struck Beirut for the first time in months and carried out one of the deadliest attacks since the truce. Still, amid these challenges, Beirut One kept hopes for reforms and international support alive, with talks with the IMF pointing to a possible deal in the near future."
