Acting Finance Minister Trevor Mallard
said the June GDP results, showing growth of 1.7 percent
over the quarter and 3.5 percent over the year, are well
above market forecasts and ahead of the PREFU
forecasts.
“The GDP figures indicate an economy in good
heart despite risks internationally,” Trevor Mallard
said.
“The momentum in the economy suggests that it is
well placed going into the second half of this
year.”
