GDP preliminary estimate - 3. quarter of 2016
Quarter-on-quarter growth continued
In the Q3 of 2016, the Czech economy continued to grow with a slower rate than in the previous quarters. According to the preliminary estimate, the gross domestic product (GDP) adjusted for price effects and seasonally adjusted[1] increased in the Q3 2016 by 1.9%, year-on-year; compared to the Q2 2016 it increased by 0.3%.
In the quarter-on-quarter comparison, the GDP growth in the Q3 2016 was moderate especially due to a slowdown of the growth in industry. The y-o-y GDP growth continued to be supported by growing consumption of households and higher external demand, while lower investment activity had a negative effect.
Employment[2] in the Q3 was by 1.7% higher than in the corresponding period of the previous year; it remained unchanged in the quarter-on-quarter comparison.
