Enterprises expect a 2.9% nominal increase in exports of goods in 2024, vis-à-vis the previous year.

In terms of Broad Economic Categories (BEC), the biggest increase is expected in exports of Capital goods (except transport equipment), and parts and accessories thereof (+4.5%), followed by Transport equipment and parts and accessories thereof (+4.3%). In the opposite direction, exports of Industrial Supplies not elsewhere specified are expected to decrease by 0.7%. 

The results from the survey on Perspectives of Exports of Goods (IPEB) for 2024, carried out in November, insofar as they are based on growth perspectives, should be seen as indicating trends conditional on the information made available by enterprises in the response period. Thus, the perspectives of the enterprises regarding their exports of goods for 2024 may also reflect, to a high degree, the uncertainty regarding developments in the international environment.
