The COVID-19 epidemic has had severe negative implications on the economy, even though almost all epidemiological measures have been suspended in the Republic of Croatia. The working-day adjusted industrial production in November 2022 decreased by 2.0% compared to November of the previous year. Compared to October 2022, the total seasonally and working-day adjusted industrial production decreased by 1.9%.
By observing the annual growth rates according to the Main Industrial Groupings (MIGs 2009), industrial production decreased in three out of five aggregates. The largest decrease was recorded in Energy (AE), of 5.8%, particularly in division 35 Electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply, of 6.6%. Durable consumer goods (CD) followed, with a decrease of 5.8%, and Intermediate consumer goods (CN), with a decrease of 5.3%.
The calculation of the MIGs 2009. aggregates for the industrial production volume index was done by grouping of the NKD 2007. activities at the level of groups or divisions within divisions B, C and D (05.1 – 35.2) as follows, using alphabetic marks of abbreviations:
Al Intermediate goods: the NKD 2007. divisions and groups: 07 – 09, 10.6, 10.9, 13.1 – 13.3, 16, 17, 20.1 – 20.3, 20.5, 20.6, 22 – 24, 25.5 – 25.7, 25.9, 26.1, 26.8, 27.1 – 27.4 and 27.9
AE Energy: the NKD 2007. divisions: 05, 06, 19 and 35 (excluding 35.3)
BB Capital goods: the NKD 2007. divisions and groups: 25.1 – 25.4, 26.2, 26.3, 26.5, 26.6, 28, 29, 30.1 – 30.4, 32.5 and 33
CD Consumer durables: the NKD 2007. divisions and groups: 26.4, 26.7, 27.5, 30.9, 31, 32.1 and 32.2
CN Consumer non-durables: the NKD 2007. divisions and groups: 10.1 – 10.5, 10.7, 10.8, 11, 12, 13.9, 14, 15, 18, 20.4, 21, 32.3, 32.4 and 32.9.
