Die Hochschätzung anhand der Angaben der im WIFO-Investitionstest erfassten Unternehmen ergibt für 2019 insgesamt eine Expansion der Investitionen um 9,6% gegenüber 2018. Kleine und mittelgroße Betriebe weiten ihre Investitionen dabei stärker aus als Großunternehmen. Insbesondere die Hersteller von Vorprodukten sowie von nichtdauerhaften Konsumgütern werden ihre Investitionen heuer deutlich anheben. Für Österreichs Gesamtwirtschaft rechnet das WIFO 2019 mit einem Anstieg der Bruttoanlageinvestitionen um real 3,1%.
