with the construction sector.
Construction remains the main sector leading the growth, almost half of it in the third trimester, with professional and administrative activities coming next, such as Call Centers, legal studios, travel agencies and architect studios. These have contributed with 0.53% in the third trimester.
The third group leading the economic growth was the public administration, education and health sectors, giving 0.51% of the additional production.
