This report provides a detailed analysis of the prospects for the global construction industry up to 2028.
The challenging macroeconomic and geopolitical environment will see growth in the global construction industry slow in 2024. Real global construction output is anticipated to grow by 1.6%, having grown by 4.1% in 2023. Although the slowdown is being felt across many markets, growth in advanced economies is expected to be more impacted - with growth in 2024 falling by 1%, driven by lower output in Western Europe. In comparison, growth in emerging markets will remain positive, at 3.3%, with South Asia posting the highest grow (6.0%) of any region globally. China's real construction output will grow by 4% in 2024. Given the country's dominance across the global construction market, global real construction output growth excluding China will be flat at 0.4%.
