From http://www.catalannewsagency.com/news/business/exports-will-drive-catalan-economy-09-growth-2011 (in English)

According to the Catalan Ministry of Economy and Knowledge, exports will lead the slight growth that has been forecast for Catalan economy in 2011, estimated at 0.9%. Exports are expected to grow by 6.2% during this year, which will help reverse the trend in the Catalan economy, but president Artur Mas has warned that this growth will not be enough for job creation. Unemployment in Catalonia is expected to reach 18% by the end of the year.
