The OECD accelerates economic growth in the second quarter with Spain at the head of the major economies

The economies of OECD countries saw a slight acceleration in growth between April and June. The organisation's GDP grew 0.5% in the second quarter, up 0.1% from the first quarter. This growth rate translates to a 2.7% increase compared to the same quarter last year, up from 2.3% in the first quarter. Spain's economy grew 0.7%, outpacing the OECD average and the eurozone, while Canada's economy grew 0.8%, the highest among major advanced economies.
