Por qué importa
The yearly rate is less noisy than the quarterly change and is the figure most people mean by "economic growth". It shapes the earnings outlook for local companies, tax revenue, and the Banco Central de Chile's view of how much spare capacity the economy has.
Cómo se calcula
the National Statistics Institute (INE) compares real GDP (after inflation) with the same quarter or year before; full-year figures sum the four quarters.
Growth (yoy) = real GDP ÷ real GDP a year ago − 1Qué significan los cambios
- Growth above the country's trend (about 1–2% for advanced economies, more for emerging ones) tends to raise inflation pressure.
- Annual growth turns only slowly; the quarterly figure shows turning points earlier.
Mayor de lo esperado: A stronger figure than expected points to a healthier economy: it usually supports the Chilean peso and local stocks, and can push bond yields up.
Menor de lo esperado: A weaker figure than expected points to slowing activity: the Chilean peso tends to soften and markets price in lower rates.
Una breve historia
