Industry in Dominican Republic
Dominican Republic - Industry
The economy showed signs of life in July, after a less favorable external environment and pre-election uncertainty weighed on momentum in the second quarter. Growth in economic activity accelerated markedly from June’s near two-year low, likely supported by monetary stimulus in the form of lower interest rates and liquidity injections. Moreover, robust annual remittances growth should be buttressing private consumption, despite falling from the highs observed earlier in the year. Less positively, recent bad press over visitor deaths has tarnished the tourism sector. Arrivals were down 11% year-on-year in July and, in September, the government consequently created a committee designed to improve the security of the tourism sector, which is a vital source of foreign currency.Dominican Republic - Industry Data
