Scoreboard
September 2011
Quarter
Auckland retains its firm grip on
top spot in the ASB / Main Report Regional Economic
Scoreboard, with construction activity - particularly
non-residential - picking up considerably in the latest
quarter. Southland has climbed to second place, with
consumer confidence in the region now the highest in the
country.
Meanwhile the top half of the South Island is performing well due to the relocation of people from earthquake affected areas, with Tasman and Nelson both edging towards the top of the table. Canterbury remains in the top half of the rankings, despite the challenges presented by the earthquakes, and there are encouraging signs for recovery in the region.
The ASB / Main Report Regional Economic Scoreboard takes the latest quarterly regional statistics and ranks the economic performance of New Zealand’s 16 regional economic areas. The full report is available online.
