Despite modest economic growth, the country's construction industry registered positive growth during the review period, driven by the government's investments in transport, residential and commercial infrastructure projects.

The industry is expected to expand over the forecast period (2017–2021), driven by positive developments in regional economic conditions and subsequent improvements in investor confidence. Moreover, the government's various large-scale investments in transport and commercial infrastructure projects on the back of the upcoming 'World Expo 2020' will be a major driver for the industry's growth over the forecast period.

The industry's output value in real terms increased at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.38% during the review period, and is expected to post a CAGR of 4.68% over the forecast period

The government's plans to diversify from an oil-dependent economy, while focusing on growth in non-oil sectors, are expected to drive investment in the construction industry over the forecast period.
