A breakdown by industrial activity reveals that expansions in the manufacture of beverages; processed and preserved meat; and chemical products largely drove February’s upturn.
Annual average growth in industrial production edged up to 1.7% in February from 1.6% in the prior month.
Panelists surveyed for this month’s LatinFocus are still assessing recent developments and a new Consensus Forecast will be available from 21 April.
