A "bruttó hazai termék" (BHT) is the Hungarian term for Gross Domestic Product (GDP). It represents the total monetary value of all goods and services produced within a country's borders over a specific time period, usually a year. BHT is a key indicator of a country's economic performance and health, reflecting the overall economic activity. BHT includes consumption, investment, government spending, and net exports (exports minus imports). It helps policymakers, economists, and analysts assess economic growth, compare economic performance between countries, and make informed decisions regarding fiscal and monetary policies.
