  • Growing Your Business In The Global Economy: Not All Doom And Gloom - Speech By Kristin Forbes, ​Kristin Forbes, External MPC member, Bank Of England, Given At Brighton Summit 2015, Brighton

    Date 16/10/2015

    Doom and Gloom” seems to pervade any discussion of emerging markets these days.  Ever since China’s stock market gyrations and currency adjustment sparked a swoon in equity markets around the world, newspaper headlines on the global economy have been dominated by pessimism (Figure 1).  Major emerging markets, such as Brazil and Russia, are expected not just to experience slower growth this year – but suffer outright contractions.  Sharp declines in global commodity prices have caused share prices of companies in this sector to plummet.  Global trade (as a share of global GDP) has basically stopped growing over the past 4 years (Figure 2).  At its annual meeting last weekend, the IMF downgraded its global growth forecasts – again.  This is the eighth fall annual meeting in a row that they have had to revise down their forecasts for global growth in the current year.  The global economy is unlikely to grow at anywhere close to the 5.7% rate at which it peaked in 2007.  There seems to be an abundance of bad news to justify doom and gloom about the global economy.
