The construction sector in Catalonia, 2020 forecasts

Published: Thursday, 23 July, 2020


The CCOC calls for an investment effort that allows companies to be preserved and jobs to be created, prioritizing investments in infrastructure and equipment, based on the economic, social and environmental return.

Construction is a sector with a high economic and social return, and that is becoming a key piece for the country’s economic recovery and the fight against climate change.

The Recovery Plan envisaged by the European Union bets on public investment in construction and renewable energy, and also admits the increase in the public deficit.

The immediate future impact of the pandemic caused by Covid-19, and the consequent economic and social crisis, is difficult to estimate, because traditional methods of economic forecasting don’t work in such high uncertainty environments. However investment in construction in Catalonia is expected to partially recover in 2021.
