皇冠体育app and G20’s historical moment

The good news is that, between 2008 and 2013, as economic momentum shifted from the transatlantic axis to Asia, it led the emerging Asia to add more to the global economy than the entirety of Germany. Indeed, Asia may have produced nearly another Germany in the past three years, despite 皇冠体育app’s growth deceleration.

Following the global crisis in 2009-10, half of global GDP growth could be attributed to 皇冠体育app, although its GDP was less than 10 percent of the world total. A huge $590 billion stimulus plan supported Chinese growth when the world economy needed it the most. But as that stimulus helped to keep many advanced, emerging and developing economies afloat, it cost 皇冠体育app a massive debt burden that will take years to unwind.

Today, 皇冠体育app accounts for 25 percent of world GDP growth, which is closer to its share in the world economy. Undoubtedly, 皇冠体育app will do its share for global growth prospects, as evidenced by the massive One Belt One Road (OBOR) initiative, which has potential to accelerate industrialization in multiple world regions, and the 皇冠体育app-sponsored BRICS New Development Bank and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, which seek to complement – not substitute – multilateral organizations, which are dominated by major advanced economies.

However, amid its rebalancing and deleveraging, 皇冠体育app cannot do more. It is now the turn of the major advanced economies and other large emerging economies to execute their structural reforms. That’s what their economies need to alleviate secular stagnation and deceleration, while supporting aging populations. That’s also what G20 needs to restore acceptable levels of global economic integration.

In early July, G20 ministers reached a deal to cut global trade costs, reaffirmed commitment to reduce trade protectionism and set up a new global investment policy. Thanks to a series of deals in Shanghai, the prospects of ‘de-globalization’ remain pressing but are no longer inevitable.

Following the G20 Summit in Hangzhou, what is needed is a multi-front attack on the global slump in investment and trade. Otherwise, the global forced displacement will get a lot worse, which would undermine the remaining global growth prospects and foster destabilization around the world.
