Economy The Next World

Posted by on Tue, Aug 11, 2009 at 11:46 AM

The analysts at RGE have organized a list of the economies that have best "weathered the global recession and credit crunch" and why.

All economies have been affected by the crisis, but a combination of policy responses and strong fundamentals has given some countries, especially some emerging market economies, a relative edge. These same strengths could lead the countries we highlight below to perform better as the global recovery begins, even if their growth rates remain well below 2003-2007 trends.

RGE is a website run by Nouriel Roubini, a professor of economics at the New York University Stern School of Business. The list his analysts put together is not missing surprises.

Let me see - Canada, yup knew that. Brazil - well, biofuel where they actually measure global warming emissions is cool.

Nope, France doesn't surprise me, but I don't agree about Poland long term, that's partially a bubble caused by day labor from expats and is drying up fast.
