Compilation of crisp and concise coverage of what the Stalwarts in the Indian Economy and Industry think and forsee for India's Growth story during Week 1 at World Economic Forum's Davos Summit 2019
The document discusses China's new Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) and its potential implications. In 3 sentences:
The AIIB aims to address Asia's large infrastructure funding gap and could give China significant influence in global finance by providing an alternative to Western-dominated institutions like the World Bank. While many countries have joined the AIIB, seeing potential economic benefits, others like the US and Japan remain absent due to concerns the bank could undermine their interests. The success and impact of the AIIB remains uncertain as it faces challenges in balancing the interests of members and maintaining standards of governance and environmental sustainability.
The AIIB is an international financial institution focused on infrastructure projects in the Asia-Pacific region. It was initiated by China in 2013 and has 57 prospective founding members. The AIIB will invest in public works like roads, bridges, and other infrastructure projects, which are estimated to require $8 trillion across Asia by 2020. China is the largest shareholder with 30.34% of votes, followed by India and Russia. The AIIB has a governance structure with a Board of Governors, Board of Directors, and Management Team. Many countries in Asia, Europe, and elsewhere have signed onto the AIIB agreement.
Economic Comparison between India and ChinaShreya Jain
China has a larger economy than India based on GDP and GDP per capita. China also has lower unemployment and inflation rates, and a higher current account balance. However, China's GINI coefficient is worse than India's, indicating greater inequality. While China has a larger population, India has a younger population that is less urbanized. China has a larger labor force and higher rates of life expectancy, literacy, and urbanization compared to India.

This document provides information about 5-year plans in India, NITI Aayog, and analysis of both. It lists the goals of 5-year plans as growth, modernization, self-reliance, and equity. Failures of 5-year plans included stagnant economy, poverty, and unemployment. NITI Aayog was formed in 2015 to replace the Planning Commission and provide strategic policy inputs and advice to the central and state governments. It aims to involve states in development and facilitate collaboration between different stakeholders. However, some argue it has disadvantages such as an inability to ensure an equitable society or influence long-term policy and investment decisions.

India has seen strong economic growth rates of around 7% annually, making it one of the fastest growing major economies in the world. However, agriculture still employs over half the population and poverty remains a significant issue, with over 300 million Indians living below the poverty line. Literacy rates are also relatively low at 61% and healthcare access is limited with only one doctor per 1,230 people. While certain economic indicators are positive, significant development challenges remain around employment, education, health, and reducing inequality.
India is well positioned to outperform global markets in the next 5-10 years according to investors at a global investor conference. While global economic outlook remains cautious, India has stabilized with declining inflation and interest rates are expected to be cut to support the economy. India also benefits from a comfortable external sector and stable rupee. Most investors still have faith in India's growth potential and see it leading the global economic recovery. India offers attractive stock valuations and selective large caps as well as midcaps present growth opportunities according to fund managers. However, some uncertainty remains around potential negative global events.
Comparison of Indian and Chinese EconomyAnkit Dabral
- China has experienced much faster GDP growth than India over the past 25 years, averaging around 9.8% annually compared to 5-6% in India. This is due to China's higher investment rates, larger inflows of foreign direct investment, and greater investment in infrastructure.
- China has been more successful at reducing poverty and improving human development outcomes. The poverty rate in China dropped 84% between 1981 and 2005 while in India it dropped 60%, and China outranks India on measures like life expectancy, literacy, and access to water/sanitation.
- While India has strengths in some service sectors like IT and banking, China leads in most other areas such as manufacturing, trade, employment growth in agriculture and industry,

The document discusses several key aspects of the economy including production, distribution, consumption, and factors that determine the health of an economy such as GDP, industries, exports, and imports. It compares the GDP of India and China, with China having a GDP over 10 trillion compared to India's 4 trillion. The "Make in India" campaign aims to make India a manufacturing hub and boost domestic production. Crude oil production in the US has increased in recent years, affecting global oil prices.
The document analyzes India's economy under the LPG (Liberalization, Privatization, and Globalization) model introduced in 1991. It discusses both the benefits and drawbacks of LPG for India's economy. The key benefits mentioned are high economic growth rates, rising stock markets, increasing foreign investment and trade. However, it also notes rising inequality, environmental degradation, and benefits being concentrated among large corporations rather than rural communities. In the current state, India's economy is recovering from the global recession and growing at around 7-8% annually, but faces challenges of sustaining this and reducing poverty and regional disparities.
This presentation provides an overview of the Asian Development Bank (ADB). It discusses the ADB's historical background, objectives, structure, and functions. The key points are:
- The ADB was established in 1966 and is headquartered in Manila, Philippines. Its mission is to reduce poverty and improve living conditions in Asia and the Pacific.
- The ADB's main objectives are to foster economic growth, accelerate development, and eliminate poverty in Asia and the Pacific.

INDIAN ECONOMY V/S CHINESE ECONOMY, A Comparative StudyAnkit Dabral
The document compares the economies of India and China. It finds that while China's economy is currently larger than India's based on GDP, India's economy has grown at a faster rate in recent years. Some key differences highlighted include:
- China's economy was not colonized like India's was, allowing it to develop stronger initially.
- China has higher GDP and per capita income but a lower poverty rate than India.
- India's economy relies more on services while China's relies more on industry and manufacturing.
India and China have large populations and economies. India has a population of 1.3 billion and a mixed economy, while China has a slightly larger population of 1.7 billion and a socialist market economy. Both countries promote foreign investment and have large agricultural outputs, though China's total food grain production and GDP are higher than India's. Key differences are that India is a democratic country while China follows communism, and India has a better relationship with other countries compared to China.
Pakistan faces several challenges as a developing country including poverty, unemployment, low per capita income, and reliance on agriculture. Poverty has declined to around 17% of the population according to recent estimates. Unemployment has also declined slightly but remains around 6% nationally. Per capita income is only $806 annually or about 6% of the global average. Agriculture is an important industry led by wheat, sugarcane, cotton, and rice production. Population growth is around 1.8% annually contributing to development issues. However, Pakistan's Human Development Index has increased 53% since 1980 indicating some economic and social progress over time.

India is rapidly emerging as a key destination for foreign investment. Both foreign direct investment (FDI) and foreign portfolio investment (FPI) have seen robust growth.
FDI reached an all time high of US$ 56B in 2015-16, 6x more than the figure a decade ago.
Mauritius and Singapore are top FDI investors in India; this is due to tax regime. India has double tax avoidance treaties, and lower local tax rates in those countries mean that investors are routing FDI through them. Also, several investors prefer Singapore as a legal jurisdiction as well.
India has become an important destination for inbound FDI in a global context. In 2015, for ex, it was the seventh meaningful nation, behind the likes of USA, China, Brazil, Canada, UK and Germany. We are ignoring some of the other nations higher up on the list, like Ireland, Hong Kong, Switzerland etc, since these are routing destinations.
The report gives overview of trend in FDI, and the governing regime for FDI in India, including sectoral caps, procedure for setting up a company in India and so on.
This document summarizes the key discussions and recommendations from the 2009 India Economic Summit held in New Delhi from 8-10 November 2009. The Summit brought together over 800 participants from over 40 countries to discuss India's economic growth potential and challenges. While India has shown resilience during the global economic crisis, maintaining rapid and inclusive growth will require continued reforms, boosting rural economic development, job creation, improving education and skills training, and eliminating infrastructure deficits. Harnessing its young population and the entrepreneurial spirit of its people will be critical for India to realize its full economic potential.
India has seen strong economic growth rates of around 7% annually, making it one of the fastest growing major economies in the world. However, agriculture still employs over half the population and poverty remains a significant issue, with over 300 million Indians living below the poverty line.

India remained an attractive destination for foreign direct investment (FDI) in 2011, despite a slowing global economy. The number of FDI projects in India increased 20% in 2011 to 932 projects, creating over 255,000 new jobs. India was the fourth most popular country for FDI projects, behind the US, China, and UK, but the third largest destination in terms of FDI value after China and Brazil. Major investors came from the US, Germany, UK and France, drawn to India's large domestic market and lower costs. However, India needs to further improve infrastructure and governance to maintain its appeal to global investors in the long run.

This document discusses foreign direct investment (FDI) in India. It provides perspectives from economists at the OECD on India's FDI policies and performance. While India has become more open to FDI since economic liberalization in 1991, doubts and suspicions about foreign investment remain. Bureaucracy, regulations, intellectual property protection, and tax policy uncertainties have inhibited FDI. The services sector in India remains more restricted than manufacturing, despite services performing better economically. OECD economists argue India can learn from more FDI-friendly OECD countries in establishing predictable, transparent, and competitive investment policies tailored to India's economic strengths and needs.
India has many hidden strengths that are not fully reflected in economic reports and statistics. These include having the largest number of entrepreneurs and small startups in the world, especially in trading and retail. It is also easy to start a business in India where only local licenses are required. Despite high interest rates, many small businesses are very profitable. India also has a high savings rate, money multiplier effect, and assets held by the government, PSUs, banks, and individuals. Tapping into these hidden strengths could help India realize its full economic potential and regain its former status as a leading global economy.

The Rise and Fall of Ponzi Schemes in America.pptxDiana Rose
Ponzi schemes, a notorious form of financial fraud, have plagued America’s investment landscape for decades. Named after Charles Ponzi, who orchestrated one of the most infamous schemes in the early 20th century, these fraudulent operations promise high returns with little or no risk, only to collapse and leave investors with significant losses. This article explores the nature of Ponzi schemes, notable cases in American history, their impact on victims, and measures to prevent falling prey to such scams.
Understanding Ponzi Schemes
A Ponzi scheme is an investment scam where returns are paid to earlier investors using the capital from newer investors, rather than from legitimate profit earned. The scheme relies on a constant influx of new investments to continue paying the promised returns. Eventually, when the flow of new money slows down or stops, the scheme collapses, leaving the majority of investors with substantial financial losses.
Historical Context: Charles Ponzi and His Legacy
Charles Ponzi is the namesake of this deceptive practice. In the 1920s, Ponzi promised investors in Boston a 50% return within 45 days or 100% return in 90 days through arbitrage of international reply coupons. Initially, he paid returns as promised, not from profits, but from the investments of new participants. When his scheme unraveled, it resulted in losses exceeding $20 million (equivalent to about $270 million today).
Notable American Ponzi Schemes
1. Bernie Madoff: Perhaps the most notorious Ponzi scheme in recent history, Bernie Madoff’s fraud involved $65 billion. Madoff, a well-respected figure in the financial industry, promised steady, high returns through a secretive investment strategy. His scheme lasted for decades before collapsing in 2008, devastating thousands of investors, including individuals, charities, and institutional clients.
2. Allen Stanford: Through his company, Stanford Financial Group, Allen Stanford orchestrated a $7 billion Ponzi scheme, luring investors with fraudulent certificates of deposit issued by his offshore bank. Stanford promised high returns and lavish lifestyle benefits to his investors, which ultimately led to a 110-year prison sentence for the financier in 2012.
3. Tom Petters: In a scheme that lasted more than a decade, Tom Petters ran a $3.65 billion Ponzi scheme, using his company, Petters Group Worldwide. He claimed to buy and sell consumer electronics, but in reality, he used new investments to pay off old debts and fund his extravagant lifestyle. Petters was convicted in 2009 and sentenced to 50 years in prison.
4. Eric Dalius and Saivian: Eric Dalius, a prominent figure behind Saivian, a cashback program promising high returns, is under scrutiny for allegedly orchestrating a Ponzi scheme. Saivian enticed investors with promises of up to 20% cash back on everyday purchases. However, investigations suggest that the returns were paid using new investments rather than legitimate profits. The collapse of Saivian l

Fabular Frames and the Four Ratio ProblemMajid Iqbal
Digital, interactive art showing the struggle of a society in providing for its present population while also saving planetary resources for future generations. Spread across several frames, the art is actually the rendering of real and speculative data. The stereographic projections change shape in response to prompts and provocations. Visitors interact with the model through speculative statements about how to increase savings across communities, regions, ecosystems and environments. Their fabulations combined with random noise, i.e. factors beyond control, have a dramatic effect on the societal transition. Things get better. Things get worse. The aim is to give visitors a new grasp and feel of the ongoing struggles in democracies around the world.
Stunning art in the small multiples format brings out the spatiotemporal nature of societal transitions, against backdrop issues such as energy, housing, waste, farmland and forest. In each frame we see hopeful and frightful interplays between spending and saving. Problems emerge when one of the two parts of the existential anaglyph rapidly shrinks like Arctic ice, as factors cross thresholds. Ecological wealth and intergenerational equity areFour at stake. Not enough spending could mean economic stress, social unrest and political conflict. Not enough saving and there will be climate breakdown and ‘bankruptcy’. So where does speculative design start and the gambling and betting end? Behind each fabular frame is a four ratio problem. Each ratio reflects the level of sacrifice and self-restraint a society is willing to accept, against promises of prosperity and freedom. Some values seem to stabilise a frame while others cause collapse. Get the ratios right and we can have it all. Get them wrong and things get more desperate.
“Amidst Tempered Optimism” Main economic trends in May 2024 based on the results of the New Monthly Enterprises Survey, #NRES
