2 Thanks for this opportunity today. We are interested in your input. My presentation. But first… a disclaimer. AGENDA:

3

The Southeast (and Florida) economy in perspective 4 If the Southeast was an independent country, its GDP would make it the 8 th largest in the world. Florida alone would be the world’s 18 th largest economy at $744 billion

5 The Miami Branch zone would be the 32 nd largest economy in the world in terms of GDP South Florida’s economy is significant for many reasons. Size is one of them. Miami – Ft. Lauderdale Metro Area is the 41 largest economy, roughly the size of Singapore Miami Branch Zone (13 Southernmost counties in Florida) is the 32 largest economy, roughly the size of Thailand

9 Key points The U.S. economy continues to recover, but the pace of growth has slowed, and further improvement is likely to be gradual. Consumer spending is increasing at a modest pace, constrained by persistently high unemployment and slow income growth. Inflation has stabilized at historically low levels. Risks to the outlook include renewed retrenchment by consumers, protracted weakness in the housing market, and deflation. The fed funds rate will remain exceptionally low for “an extended period” in light of weak conditions and heightened uncertainty about the outlook.

WHAT KIND OF GROWTH IS IT GOING TO TAKE TO MAKE A SERIOUS DENT IN THE UNEMPLOYMENT RATE? Unemployment Economic Growth… in excess of productivity growth… and ordinary labor force growth… and re-entry of the discouraged workforce... and absorption of the underemployed. 14

*Note: Marginally attached workers currently want a job and have looked for work within the last 12 months. This primarily includes discouraged workers (those not currently looking for work because they believe no work is available given their circumstance), and persons not now working due to family responsibilities, ill-health, or are in school.

Underemployment is significantly higher than in past recessions. October

THE RECOVERY IS EXPECTED TO BE MODEST RELATIVE TO THE MAGNITUDE OF THE RECESSION 28

29 Economic growth is weaker: GDP growth continuing but has downshifted since the first quarter of 2010 Strengths: Some manufacturing growth, new equipment, software investments Weaknesses: Housing, household income growth, financial firms not lending, and many small businesses not able to get financing. Businesses not hiring. Risks: Commercial real estate, state and local fiscal gaps, heightened uncertainty, lack of confidence, continued high unemployment Fed policy: QE2 over next several months as the Fed keeps a close eye on conditions and will employ its policy tools as necessary to support the economic recovery.
