THE
INTERNATIONAL
REPORT
The Rider Levett Bucknall
International Report is published
twice yearly and provides detailed
construction market intelligence and
data.
Rider Levett Bucknall’s passion for
best practice continues to provide
valuable insights into national
and international costs, trends
and practises. The data for the
International Report is collected over
a six month period and is robust and
relevant for construction markets
around the globe.
The International Report is produced
using global construction cost data
to determine indexed measures of
relative costs within and between
markets. Local and regional
information is analysed within
the wider economic and market
environment.
As economies appear to be moving
past the worst of the recent global
difficulties, some green shoots
of growth are evident, although
accompanied by ongoing concerns
regarding availability of funding. In
many locations government stimulus
packages are rolling towards their
conclusion, with the result that
public sector work may soon be less
readily available than of late. As a
consequence, the commercial sector
will once again have to shoulder the
load, and much will depend upon the
continued normalisation of lending
conditions and funding availability.
The International Report is
complemented by the bi-annual
International Report Update Survey
ensuring the global marketplace
remains actively informed on
the latest construction market
intelligence.
