- Hungary: Investment fell as a share of output to 22.08% of GDP in 2025, close to the EU share of 21.79%.
- Malta: Investment's share of output declined to 18.15% of GDP, below the EU share.
- Slovakia: Investment also took a smaller share of output in 2025.
The declines in these countries point to potential capacity risks across the EU, though they do not establish an EU-wide fall.
