Economic conditions
The German economy grew in the summer months despite difficulties in raw materials and supply conditions. In the second quarter, GDP recorded an increase of 1.9% according to new calculations. The Federal Statistical Office has announced that the gross domestic product (GDP) in the third quarter of 2021 increased by 1.8% (adjusted for price, seasonal and calendar effects) compared to the previous quarter. Compared to the third quarter of the previous year, GDP increased by 2.5%. The recovery of the economy is thus continuing. This development is due to higher private consumer spending. Nevertheless, the values are still below the pre- crisis level.
The Association of German Chambers of Industry and Commerce (DIHK) assumes that the recovery process weakened in the third quarter due to persistent material bottlenecks and rising energy and raw material prices. In addition, a lack of skilled workers and structural change are hampering growth, which is why the pre-crisis level will most likely not be reached again until the end of the year.
The recovering economy is also having a positive effect on the construction industry, despite supply bottlenecks and rising material costs. The Corona crisis brings with it a strong focus on one's own four walls. This has led to a do-it-yourself boom. But demand for new flats and houses also remains high. Experts and building associations see especially high employment
