GDP Capital Expenditure measures the quarterly change in spending by businesses on physical assets such as machinery, equipment, and buildings. It is a vital component of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and serves as a leading indicator of future economic productivity. Increased capital expenditure suggests that businesses are optimistic about future demand and are expanding capacity.
The data is collected through surveys of private and public sector enterprises regarding their actual expenditure on new capital assets during the reference quarter.
