Figures are annual percentage points added to (or taken off) that industry's growth rate for as long as the law stands — they stack with the global rate for the industry shown above. Greyed-out industries aren't part of Port Avalon's economy, so those impacts do nothing here until the sector exists. Change the law and the effect changes with it — see Port Avalon's laws.

Global events shaping growth

World events resolved by global decision can temporarily speed up or slow down particular industries — a solar storm battering technology, a subsidy boosting a sector. Only effects currently in force appear here; each fades on its own end date.
