The Imae figures show that in the first seven months of 2021, economic activity increased 12.6% compared with the same period in 2020. Honduras’ economy contracted 9% in 2020 as a result of the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic and the latest (August 2021) forecast by the United Nations Economic Commission for Latin America & the Caribbean (Eclac) expects that Honduras’ GDP will grow by 5% in 2021.
