Brazil’s gross domestic product rose 1% on the quarter in the three months to March of 2022, extending the expansionary momentum from the upwardly revised 0.7% increase in the previous period but missing expectations of a 1.2% rise. Growth was driven by a 0.7% advance in household consumption, expanding at a constant rate from the previous period as pandemic related restrictions continued to relax. At the same time, government expenditure was 0.1% higher, easing from the 0.9% increase in the prior quarter. Net external demand contributed positively to the GDP change, as exports gained 5% while imports were 4.6% lower.
