The Latvian construction industry remained weak in 2022, posting a contraction of 13.1% during the year, owing to a decline in building construction (-10.7%) and civil engineering construction (-14.3%). The publisher expects the industry to decline by 1.3% in real terms in 2023 as the industry will continue to feel the pressure from geopolitical uncertainty, high construction costs and slowing economic growth. Declining building permits in 2022 also suggests weaker levels of activity this year, with office permits down by 31.7% annually, wholesale and retail buildings by 8.3%, and residential permits by 0.3%, according to the Central Statistical Bureau (CSB). The latest data issued by the CSB also shows a decline in the value add of the construction industry by 8.3% YoY in Q4 2022, preceded by Y-o-Y declines of 13.6% in Q3 and 13.8% in Q2 2022.Speak directly to the analyst to clarify any post sales queries you may have.
