Turnover of construction enterprises grew by 4.0 per cent in January to March from one year back
According to Statistics Finland, the turnover of construction enterprises grew by 4.0 per cent in the first quarter of 2018. In the corresponding period one year earlier, the growth was stronger, 15.9 per cent from one year earlier. The sales volume of construction decreased by 0.3 per cent in January to March.
Three months' year-on-year change in turnover of construction (TOL 2008)
The growth of turnover in total construction was sustained by building construction, which increased by 9.7 per cent in the first quarter. The turnover of specialised construction activities went up by 2.3 per cent. The turnover of civil engineering fell by 13.4 per cent year-on-year, which slowed down the growth in the turnover of total construction.
The sales volume of construction enterprises in building construction grew 5.2 per cent year-on-year in January to March. In other industries the sales volume decreased: civil engineering by 14.3 per cent and specialised construction activities by 1.9 per cent from one year back.
The volume index of enterprises’ sales is calculated by removing the effect of price changes from the turnover index series.
