What we extracted from this document (2)
The IFI (Senate) wrote in June 2018 that the negative performance of civil construction, maintained after the end of the recession, is a limiting factor in the recovery of GDP, and listed among the causes the slow recovery of income and employment, the contraction of public investment and the effect of Operation Lava Jato on large construction firms; construction subtracted 0.9 point from industrial GDP growth over four quarters and had been in negative territory for 14 quarters.
Excerpt: “o efeito da Operação Lava Jato sobre grandes construtoras”
