ASEAN is scaling into a top-tier economic engine, targeting a US$4.2T GDP in 2025 and cementing its position as the world’s fifth-largest bloc.
Regional exports are set for a breakout phase—BCG projects ~90% growth by 2031 to US$3.2T annually, far outpacing sub-30% global trade expansion.
The uplift is anchored by supply-chain integration across autos, electronics, apparel, agri-food, and data/IT services, supported by policy tailwinds and US–China realignment.
