Four years after the onset of the global financial
crisis, the world economy continues to struggle.
Developing economies are still the main driver
of global growth, but their output has slowed
compared with the pre-crisis period. To regain
pre-crisis growth rates, developing countries
must once again emphasize internal productivity
-enhancing policies. While headwinds from
restructuring and fiscal consolidation will persist
in high-income countries, they should become
less intense allowing for a slow acceleration in
growth over the next several years.
Financial market conditions have improved
dramatically since June
The cumulative effect of national- and EU-wide
measures to improve fiscal sustainability, and
the augmentation of measures that the European
Central Bank (ECB) would be willing to take in
defense of the Euro have resulted in a significant
improvement in global financial markets. Unlike
past episodes of reduced tensions, when market
conditions improved only partially, many market
risk indicators have fallen back to levels last
seen in early 2010 – before concerns about Euro
Area fiscal sustainability took the fore.
The decline in financial market tensions has also
been felt in the developing world.
International capital flows to developing
countries, which fell by between 30 and 40
percent in May-June, have reached new highs.
Developing country bond spreads (EMBIG)
have declined by 127 basis points (bps) since
June, and are now 282 bps below their long-
term average levels.
Developing country stock markets have
increased by 12.6 percent since June (10.7
percent for high-income markets)
but the real-side recovery is weak and business-
sector confidence low
While signals from financial markets are
encouraging, those emanating from the real-side
of the global economy are more mixed. Growth
in developing countries accelerated in the third
quarter of 2012, including in major middle-
income countries such as Brazil and China,
where mid-year weakness contributed to the
global slowdown. Early indications for the
fourth quarter point to a continued acceleration
in East Asia & the Pacific, Europe & Central
Asia and South Asia; but slowing in Latin
America & the Caribbean.
Among high-income countries, investment and
industrial activity in the United States show
unusual weakness – seemingly due to
uncertainty over the stance of fiscal policy in the
run up to November‘s elections and the end-of-
2012 fiscal cliff. In Japan, the economy appears
to be contracting – in part because of political
tension with China over the sovereignty of
islands in the region and the expiration of
automobile purchase incentives. Activity in
Europe ceased to contract at alarming rates in
Q3, but the economy appears to have weakened
again in Q4 — perhaps reflecting weak demand
for capital goods from the United States and
Japan.
Prospects are for a modest acceleration of
growth between 2013 and 2015
Overall, the global economic environment
remains fragile and prone to further
disappointment, although the balance of risks is
now less skewed to the downside than it has
been in recent years. Global growth is expected
to come in at a relatively weak 2.3 and 2.4
percent in 2012 and 2013 respectively and
gradually strengthen to 3.1 and 3.3 percent in
2014 and 2015 (table 1).

Real GDP at market prices. GDP growth rates calculated using real GDP at
factor cost, which are customarily reported in India, can vary significantly from
these growth rates and have historically tended to be higher than market price
GDP growth rates. Growth rates stated on this basis, starting with FY2011-12
are 6.5, 5.4, 6.4, 7.1, and 7.3 percent – see table SAR.2 in the South Asia
regional annex.
In keeping with national practice, data for Bangladesh, Egypt, India, and Pakistan
are reported on a fiscal year basis in table 1.1. Aggregates that depend on
these countries are calculated using data compiled on a calendar year basis.
