economic growth rate

Annual rate at which a country's or an industry's income increases. When this rate is adjusted for the effects of inflation, it is termed real economic growth. Two consecutive quarters of falling growth rates mean a recession, and a similar period of rising growth rate indicates an expanding economy.
