Chile GDP growth accelerates

Chile's GDP growth hit 5.8% year on year in the first quarter of 2007, the fastest pace of expansion since the second quarter of 2005.

The increase has resulted from strong value-added output performance in mining and quarrying, in particular copper extraction.

As a result, public consumption and investment will rise strongly as the government expands social spending and infrastructure investment, financed by the global copper-price windfall.

This looks set to help boost the construction sector in particular.
