Global Economic Growth

Financial sector in the Republic of Croatia had a strong growth between 1995 2005.g. Liberalization of financial sector in 1999 led to an increase in bank foreign debt, which resulted in a strong increase in foreign currency reserves and appreciation of the national currency. The growth of the financial sector and credit expansion have been allocated in favour of private and public consumption, but not in industry investments. GDP growth didn't have the same momentum as financial aggregates. Economic growth, after a contraction in 1999 was within the average of global economic growth. Relying on neoclassical growth model, government and central bank didn't put in place the needed set of pro-active policies. Factor allocation was solely through private bank channels financing private consumption. If the sustainable economic growth and new employment are to be major macroeconomic goals, a new macroeconomic paradigm as combination of neclassical and neokeynesians approach will be needed.

Rates Of Growth

Based on capitalism and socialist measures, Taiwan not only achieved better results than Mainland China during the 1949-91 period, but also better results than any other country in the world in promoting economic growth. A lack of market was the main disadvantage of Mainland China during this period of time. However, its successful pro-market reforms and unsuccessful reforms in Taiwan (based on privatization), reversed the tide. During the last quarter of the century, Mainland China has more efficient economic system than Taiwan. As a result, Mainland China became the world’s leading economic power in 2014 and it continues to have higher rates of growth than Taiwan.

Global Economic Growth

The volume of waste generated by mining and mineral processing industries has escalated each day because of increased demand caused by global economic growth. The kaolin processing industries are important economic segments in the state of Paraiba, but generate huge amounts of waste. An alternative for the recycling of this waste is its use in mortars. The kaolin contained in wastes after thermal treatment can reduce the consumption of cement in the production of mortars. It was evaluated the influence of firing temperatures of the residue on its pozzolanic activity. The residue was fired at temperatures of 600°C, 700°C and 800°C for 2h and subjected to mineralogical analysis. The evaluation produced the mortar with a mixture of kaolin waste burned at temperatures of 600°C, 700°C and 800°C with lime delivering true a good mechanical performance, reaching values of compressive strength greater than the legislated.

The Impact

This chapter begins with a brief exploration of the importance of entrepreneurial activity as a driver of global economic growth. The importance of entrepreneurship in developing economies is examined as are the traits, motivations, and drivers of entrepreneurs and the economic, social, cultural, legislative, and regulatory circumstances that encourage and in some cases discourage entrepreneurial activity. The impact of entrepreneurship training and education on encouraging women entrepreneurs is examined, the relative importance of women entrepreneurs is examined, and emphasis is placed on the relatively greater difficulties that are faced by women entrepreneurs particularly in regards to obtaining funding for starting new ventures. Opportunities are identified that may useful for policy makers, investors, and those that may seek to promote social entrepreneurship and economic growth in developing economies.

First Time

For the first time since the industrial revolution, emerging economies are the main driver of global economic growth. For all its significance, this cannot be taken as an indicator of global convergence, since it resulted essentially from the successful catching-up processes of just a few Asian countries over the last few decades, whilst the productivity and income of the bulk of the developing economies have lagged persistently behind those of the advanced economies. The former continue to have the potential to grow faster than the latter, but realizing this potential on sustainable basis makes it necessary to meet a number of increasingly stringent conditions. Grounds for optimism are considerably less solid today than was the case in the recent past. This is highlighted by the large number of countries locked-up in the ‘middle-income trap”. This chapter offers a fresh view of this phenomenon, examines the nature of the conditions required for the potential for catching-up of middle-income economies to be realized, and attempts to arrive at a realistic outlook on this matter.

Global Economic Growth

In October 2017, IMF President Christine Lagarde declared that the GDP growth of world’s economies in the first half of 2017 was up to the broadest recovery since 2010. So far, the strength of global economic growth has been enhancing. The interest rates and inflation are still at a low level. The global economy has risen from the bottom in 2016 to reach its peak since 2011. As for the degree of economic development, the emerging markets grew fastest, followed by the developing countries, while the advanced economies grew moderately at an average rate around 2%. Manufacturing PMI in major countries, such as the United States, China, the Eurozone, and even Taiwan, have increased above 50 notably in the recent years, while the non-manufacturing PMI is also above 50. Accordingly, the main purpose of this paper is to forecast the global economy in 2018, which is on the trajectory of booming with a certain degree of uncertainty. A particular case study of Taiwan’s overall economic development is presented as well.
