4 Major Trends in the World Economy
Lecture 26 : December 1, 2016 Outlook for World Economic Growth Major Trends in the World Economy The Growth of the World Economy Has Accelerated Since 1995 and Become Much More Turbulent. The Balance of the World Economy Is Shifting from the Advanced Economies of the G7 to the Emerging Economies of Asia, Especially China and India. The Transformation of the World Economy has Led to a New World Order, Led by China, the U.S., India, and Japan.

5 THE SOURCES OF ECONOMIC GROWTH
Lecture 26 : December 1, 2016 Outlook for World Economic Growth THE SOURCES OF ECONOMIC GROWTH Comparisons among Regions and Countries Sources of Growth in Capital Input Information Technology and Non-Information Technology Labor Input and Labor Quality Total Factor Productivity

6 MODEL OF PRODUCTION: Production Possibility Frontier.
Lecture 26 : December 1, 2016 The Sources of Growth MODEL OF PRODUCTION: Production Possibility Frontier. where: I - Investment C – Consumption K – Capital L – Labor A - Total Factor Productivity (TFP)

7 Sources of World Economic Growth
Lecture 26 : December 1, 2016 Outlook for World Economic Growth Sources of World Economic Growth Average annual growth rates, weighted by the income share.

8 Sources of World Economic Growth
Lecture 26 : December 1, 2016 The Sources of Growth Sources of World Economic Growth Annual percentage growth rates

9 Sources of G7 Economic Growth
Lecture 26 : December 1, 2016 The Sources of Growth Sources of G7 Economic Growth Annual percentage growth rates

10 Sources of Growth for Developing and Transition Economies
Lecture 26 : December 1, 2016 The Sources of Growth Sources of Growth for Developing and Transition Economies Annual percentage growth rates

11 Projecting the Growth of the World Economy
Lecture 26 : December 1, 2016 Outlook for World Economic Growth Projecting the Growth of the World Economy Future Demography: Population Projections for the World Economy Are Available from the United Nations. Labor Input Growth Includes the Growth of the Labor Force and Changes in Labor Quality Due to Age, Gender, and Educational Attainment. Future Productivity: Productivity Projections for the World Economy Are Available from The Conference Board in New York. These Are Based on Future Trends in the Development of Information Technology and Non-Information Technology. We Derive Output and Capital Input Projections from Future Trends in Demography and Productivity. Future Productivity Growth Is the Main Source of the Substantial Uncertainty in Projections of the Growth of the World Economy.

12 Sources of Average Labor Productivity Growth
Lecture 26 : December 1, 2016 Outlook for World Economic Growth Sources of Average Labor Productivity Growth where:   y = Y/H - Output per Hour Worked (ALP).   k = K/H - Capital Input per Hour Worked. CAPITAL DEEPENING: growth of capital input per hour worked, weighted by the share of capital. LABOR QUALITY GROWTH: growth of labor input per hour worked, weighted by the share of labor. TOTAL FACTOR PRODUCTIVITY.

13 Range of World Output Projections
Lecture 26 : December 1, 2016 Outlook for World Economic Growth Range of World Output Projections

14 Outlook for the World Economy
Lecture 26 : December 1, 2016 Outlook for World Economic Growth Outlook for the World Economy The Growth of the World Economy Has Accelerated since 1990 and This Acceleration Will Continue for Average Labor Productivity Growth for the World Economy in Will Slow Relative to Growth of Hours World for the World Economy in Will Accelerate Relative to Future World Economic Growth Will Be Subject to Substantial Uncertainty.

15 Range of World Output Projections
Lecture 26 : December 1, 2016 Outlook for World Economic Growth Range of World Output Projections

16 Outlook for Major Regions of the World Economy
Lecture 26 : December 1, 2016 Outlook for World Economic Growth Outlook for Major Regions of the World Economy Future Growth of the G7: The Growth of the G7 Economies Will Slow Modestly to 1.22 Percent Per Year from Growth of 1.26 Percent During the Past Decade This Slowdown Reflects the Failure of the G7 Economies to Recover from the Great Recession that Began in the United States from The Upside Potential for Overcoming the Stagnation of the G7 Economies Would Require a Revival in the Sources of Growth of Average Labor Productivity, Including Capital Deepening and Total Factor Productivity Growth. The Downside Potential for Continued Stagnation Would Involve a Further Decline in These Sources of Growth of Average Labor Productivity. Future Growth of Developing Asia: The Growth of Developing Asia Will Slow to 5.18 Percent Per Year from Growth of 7.58 Percent During the Past Decade The Economies of Developing Asia Will Continue to Growth More Rapidly Than the World Economy So That the Share of These Economies in World GDP Will Rise from Percent in 2015 to Percent in 2025. The Upside Potential for Developing Asia Is to Continue the Relatively Rapid Growth of the Past Decade. This Would Require a Continued High Rates of Capital Deepening and Rapid Total Factor Productivity Growth. The Downside Potential Is for Weaker Capital Deepening and Lower Growth of Total Factor Productivity.

17 Range of G7 Output Projections
Lecture 26 : December 1, 2016 Outlook for World Economic Growth Range of G7 Output Projections

18 Outlook for the G7 Economies
Lecture 26 : December 1, 2016 Outlook for World Economic Growth Outlook for the G7 Economies Future U.S. Economic Growth: Our Projection Is for a Continuation of the Slow Growth of 1.6 Percent Annually for the Past Decade, , to Potential Growth at 1.5 Percent Annually for the Decade, Downside Risk for the U.S. Economy Is the Failure of Attempts to Develop a Sustainable Fiscal Policy. Upside Potential for the U.S. Economy Is a Substantial Stimulus to Growth from a Long Overdue Major Tax Reform. Future Japanese Growth: Our Projection Is for a More Substantial Slowdown from Growth Around 0.75 Percent Annually for the Past Decade to Potential Growth of 0.52 Percent for the Next Decade. Adverse Demographic Trends Pose Major Obstacles. The Major Downside Risk for the Japanese Economy is Continuation of the Stagnant Productivity Growth of the Past Two Decades. A New Growth Strategy Will Be Required to Overcome the Two Decades of Economic Stagnation.

19 Range of Output Projections for Emerging Economies
Lecture 26 : December 1, 2016 Outlook for World Economic Growth Range of Output Projections for Emerging Economies

20 Outlook for the Major Emerging Economies
Lecture 26 : December 1, 2016 Outlook for World Economic Growth Outlook for the Major Emerging Economies Future Chinese Economic Growth: Our Projection Is for a Substantial Slowdown from 9.6 Percent Growth for the Past Decade, , to a Sustainable Growth Rate of Five Percent for the Next Decade, This Is Well Below Official Chinese Projections. The Major Downside Risk for the Chinese Economy Is for Financial Distress Due to Unmanageable Levels of Debt. The Upside Potential of the Official Projections Would Require Major Financial and Fiscal Reforms Yet to Be Undertaken. Future Growth of the Indian Economy: Our Projection Is a More Modest Slowdown from the Growth of the Past Decade, Almost 7.5 Percent Annually, to a More Sustainable 6.5 Percent Annually in the Coming Decade. The Downside Risk for the Indian Economy Is Failure to Restore Fiscal Balance and Maintain Control of Inflation. The Upside Potential of India’s Favorable Demographic Trends Depends on Labor Market Reform and Greatly Increased Integration with the World Economy.

21 Summary of the Transformation of the World Economy
Lecture 26 : December 1, 2016 Outlook for World Economic Growth Summary of the Transformation of the World Economy Despite the Economic Turbulence of the Past Two Decades, the World Economy Is Entering a Period of Sustainable Growth at a Rate of almost 3.2 Percent Annually, Only Slightly below the Growth Rate of 3.3 Percent for the Past Quarter Century. Relative Importance of the Major Emerging Economies, China and India, Will Continue to Increase, Even with Much Slower Growth in China and a Modest Slowdown in India. Growth Potential Will Increase Modestly in Both Japan and the U.S. Upside Potential Growth of the World Economy Is Considerable, But Would Require Ambitious Domestic Reforms in the Major Emerging Economies that Appear Unlikely. Downside Risks Are for Continued Stagnation of Productivity Growth around the World. Conclusion: The Base Case Projection of World Economy Is for Moderate but Sustained Growth and a Continuing Shift from the Advanced Economies of the G7 to the Major Emerging Economies. This Has Established the New World Order of the 21st Century.

23 Medium Term Outlook for the World Economy
Lecture 26 : December 1, 2016 Outlook for World Economic Growth Medium Term Outlook for the World Economy According to the IMF the world economy will return to the high levels of growth of This will close most of the gap between potential and actual growth. Developing Asia, especially China and India, will grow very rapidly, shrinking the gap between levels of GDP for advanced and emerging economies. The U.S. will continue to grow more rapidly than Europe and Japan.
