Moderate expansion ahead

摘要

An increase of +6% in turnover for the year as a whole is being forecast for Liebherr but it said that it seemed probable that only the construction machinery sector would generate this growth. The German-based group pointed to the fact that the world economy had recovered faster than expected and predicted that this year's total world production would probably increase again almost as quickly as it did in the years before the financial crisis. However, the current upward business trend will lose impetus and give way to a more moderate rate of expansion, it said.
