Recommendation

For the official view of what’s happening in the global economy, particularly as it relates to developing countries, go to the source: the World Bank. This periodically issued report amasses data and expert analyses from the bank’s Development Economics Group to provide an up-to-date resource about global economic events in 2011 and the first half of 2012, as well as informed forecasts for 2013 and 2014. getAbstract suggests this comprehensive, analytical look at developing markets’ economies to policy makers, executives and planners.

Take-Aways

  • Destabilizing events around the world characterized much of 2011.
  • Japan’s earthquake and tsunami, Thailand’s floods, and economic turmoil in the euro zone adversely affected financial markets and global economic output.
  • But with the beginning of 2012, prospects appeared brighter as Europe stabilized and markets calmed.
