Construction in Portugal - Key Trends and Opportunities to 2018, New Report Launched

The Portuguese construction industry recorded a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.67% during the review period (2009–2013) and valued EUR19.1 billion (US$25.4 billion) in 2013. During the review period, all construction markets registered negative growth, owing to the financial crisis and austerity measures implemented by the government. Although export demand has improved, the economy remained weak and the recovery is vulnerable to external risks. Until consumer and business confidence is revived, general spending and investment will remain low, undermining the prospects for construction activity growth. The construction industry’s output is, therefore, expected to record a nominal CAGR of 1.06% over the forecast period (2014−2018), to reach EUR20.2 billion (US$28.4 billion) in 2018.

This report provides detailed market analysis, information and insights into the Portuguese construction industry including:

• The Portuguese construction industry's growth prospects by market, project type and type of construction activity
• Analysis of equipment, material and service costs across each project type within Portugal
• Critical insight into the impact of industry trends and issues, and the risks and opportunities they present to participants in the Portuguese construction industry
• Analyzing the profiles of the leading operators in the Portuguese construction industry.
• Data highlights of the largest construction projects in Portugal

Scope

This report provides a comprehensive analysis of the construction industry in Portugal. It provides:

• Historical (2009-2013) and forecast (2014-2018) valuations of the construction industry in Portugal using construction output and value-add methods
• Segmentation by sector (commercial, industrial, infrastructure, institutional and residential) and by project type
• Breakdown of values within each project type, by type of activity (new construction, repair and maintenance, refurbishment and demolition) and by type of cost (materials, equipment and services)
• Analysis of key construction industry issues, including regulation, cost management, funding and pricing

• Formulate and validate business strategies using Publisher's critical and actionable insight
• Assess business risks, including cost, regulatory and competitive pressures
• Evaluate competitive risk and success factors

Key Highlights

• For the past decade, Portugal’s construction industry has been in a state of decline. According to Statistics Portugal (Instituto Nacional de Estatística – INE), in 2013, construction production activity was equivalent to just 40.0% of the total in 2003. The pace of decline quickened in 2012 and 2013, when the annual decline reached 16.0%. Construction value added in real terms declined from EUR6.4 million (US$8.2 million) in 2012 to EUR5.5 million (US$7.3 million) in 2013, while the contribution of total construction industry’s value add to GDP in nominal terms declined from 4.4% in 2012 to 3.8% in 2013. There has also been a decline in the number of building permits issued in the country; the total fell to 16,700 in 2013, a decline of 19.6% over 2012. The number of completed buildings dropped to 19,700 in 2013, a decline of 24.1% during the same period.
• In 2011, the government introduced the new toll charges on roads stretching more than 900km. The charges resulted in a decline in traffic and affected investments in road infrastructure. According to Inrix, a leading provider of traffic services, congestion was reduced by 68.0% in the first quarter of 2013. Portugal’s infrastructure projects are primarily financed by public private partnerships (PPPs) and in 2012 the government decided to renegotiate these contracts with private firms to generate savings and reduce the PPP obligation by 30% over the next 30 years. Owing to these situations, the investment in the road infrastructure category is likely to decline over the forecast period.
• In a bid to meet the targets set out by international lenders, the government has had to implement austerity measures. The government reduced its education spending from a peak of EUR8.5 billion (US$11.2 billion) in 2010 to EUR6.8 billion (US$8.7 billion) in 2012, with some of this saving coming from school closures. The number of schools was reduced by 1,200 to reach 6,292 for the academic year 2013–2014, and as such, future investment in new educational buildings is expected to be minimal.
• According to the INE, the movement of goods in ports increased by 20.2% in the fourth quarter of 2013, whereas railway freight transport increased by 8.0%. The road freight transport registered an increase of 19.9% in the fourth quarter of 2013. The upward trend in the transport of goods is likely to continue due to improvements in export demand, which, in turn, will attract investment in the transport infrastructure over the forecast period.
• According to the World Travel and Tourism Council, the direct contribution of tourism to the country’s GDP reached EUR9.4 billion (US$12.8 billion) in 2012 and is expected to increase by 2.0% annually by 2023. The number of foreign tourist arrivals in the country increased by 8.1%, to reach 3.6 million in the first half of 2013. Due to an increasing number of tourists, investment in the leisure and hospitality buildings category is expected to increase. Various upcoming projects, such as the Monte Nabo Hotel Resort & Spa, worth EUR24.0 million (US$30.0 million) and Palmares Beach and Golf Resort in Algarve, worth EUR313.1 million (US$412.0 million), will support growth in the commercial construction market.

This makes Switzerland the fastest-growing European nation in terms of Chinese tourism. In response to this, Switzerland Tourism began to train ski instructors to speak Mandarin in 2014, to attract more Chinese skiers.
• Many tour operators and travel agencies have begun to relocate to Switzerland due to favorable tax regulations specific to the industry. Tour operators benefit from the government’s unique VAT policy when operators sell travel packages to customers through companies or subsidiaries based in Switzerland. Typically, a tour operator can save up to 20% on their gross profits before any additional direct tax optimization.
• The Gulf region is gradually developing into a key source market for Swiss tourism. According to Switzerland Tourism, the number of Gulf tourists that visited Switzerland from January to October 2013, was 38,441. In addition, Kuwait recorded an increase of 43%, Saudi Arabia 27% and the UAE 23%.

Operators based in Switzerland are not liable to pay this. In Switzerland, VAT is only charged if the tour takes place within Switzerland. This provides savings for operators who conduct their business online or in-store from Switzerland.

Construction in Egypt - Key Trends and Opportunities to 2018, New Report Launched

During the review period (2009−2013), the Egyptian construction industry increased in value at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.78%. This was supported by public and private investments in Egyptian infrastructural and commercial construction projects. The participation of the private sector through public-private partnerships (PPPs) has also helped to support construction activities in the country. Political and social uncertainties, however, are expected to lead to comparatively moderate growth rates over the forecast period (2014−2018), compared to the review period. Moreover, the industry’s output growth rate is expected to remain in the range of 13% to 15% over the forecast period, owing to high inflation rates. The construction industry’s output is expected to record a CAGR of 14.50% over the forecast period.

This report provides detailed market analysis, information and insights into the Egyptian construction industry including:

• The Egyptian construction industry's growth prospects by market, project type and type of construction activity

Key Highlights

• Construction is one of the most important industries in the Egyptian economy, contributing 7% to the country’s GDP. Egypt’s construction industry registered low growth during the period of political turmoil in the country. According to the Central Bank of Egypt (CBE), the construction industry’s output (in real terms) rose by only 2.9% in 2011−2012 and 4.9% in 2012−2013. Owing to political and social turbulence, deterioration in the business environment and high unemployment rates, the construction industry is expected to remain weak in the short term. However, overall outlook for construction in Egypt over the forecast period remains positive.
• Industrial construction will be supported by various refinery building projects. Egypt is the largest oil refinery center in Africa, with a combined processing capacity of 975,000 barrels per day (bpd) across 10 refineries. The government has plans to increase production of lighter products, petrochemicals and higher-octane gasoline by expanding and upgrading existing facilities and encouraging new projects. Plans to expand the country’s combined processing capacity by over 600,000 bpd by 2016 are expected to support and sustain the refinery building construction category over the forecast period. Moreover, in a bid to increase the country’s annual fuel output, the Egyptian Minister of Petroleum announced its plan to invest US$18 million until 2017, in order to construct new refineries and modify existing refineries.
• The residential construction market is expected to expand over the forecast period, mainly driven by a rising population and increasing levels of urbanization. Egypt is one of the most populous countries in Africa and the Middle East, and according to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), Egypt’s population rose by 10.7%, from 75.2 million people in 2008 to 84.2 million in 2013. The country’s urbanization rate increased from 42.8% in 2001 to 43.7% in 2012. This trend is set to continue, driving up the demand for new housing.
• A shortage of raw materials, an uncertain political environment, price controls and excessive government interference in the operation of key industries are among the main obstacles likely to deter the expansion of construction and manufacturing industries over the forecast period. Owing to political and social turbulence, the GDP real growth rate was only 2.2% in 2012, slumping to 1.8% in 2013.
• According to CBE figures, the country has registered a steep rise in inflation rates. The consumer price index in the country increased by 13% annually in November 2013, compared with the same period in 2012. With high inflation, a deteriorating business environment and devaluation of the local currency, the real growth rate of the construction industry’s output is expected to remain weak over the forecast period.
