Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/17/2014 -- The Belarusian construction industry posted a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 30.93% during the review period (2008-2012). This growth was largely due to government efforts to liberalize the economy, develop an investment climate, modernize the country's transport and logistics infrastructure, meet the rising demand for commercial and retail space, and construct a large volume of new homes. Industry growth is expected to remain strong over the forecast period (2013-2017), as a result of the government's focus on infrastructure and residential construction. Consequently, the industry output is expected to post a CAGR of 21.15% over the forecast period.

Key Highlights

- The Belarusian economy is expected to grow in the range of 2.5-3.3% during 2014-2016, constrained by high interest rates and weak investment growth on the back of a volatile exchange rate and limited exports. Over 2017-2018, the country's average GDP growth is projected to measure 3.7%, as domestic and external economic situations improve.
