The Dominican Republic records foreign direct investment (FDI) of US$5.0323 billion in 2025, according to preliminary data cited by multiple outlets. The figure represents an 11.3% increase compared with the previous year. The reporting also notes that the Central Bank’s preliminary figures are being used as the basis for the total.
Tourism and energy are identified as the leading sectors driving the total, together accounting for just over half of the investment. Both sources point to these sectors as central contributors to the country’s inflows and to continued momentum. PR Newswire frames the update around statements by President Luis Abinader, while The Rio Times emphasizes the record level and the expectation of further growth in 2026. Despite these different emphases, both accounts rely on the same preliminary Central Bank trend and provide the same headline numbers.
