News of the week
Reliance Retail is close to signing a joint venture agreement with Toys 'R' Us, the world's leading toy retailer, to launch toy stores in India. The toy retail market in India is worth 6000 crore rupees but is highly fragmented with unorganized players controlling over 60% of the market share. Six government ministries will decide whether to allow foreign direct investment in multi-brand retail in India. Currently only single-brand retail and wholesale businesses are allowed. The IMF projects India's growth rate to be 9.7% in 2010 and 8.4% in 2011, driven by robust industrial production and economic performance. China is expected to grow faster at 10.5% and 9.6%
Brexit by Dr. Bhavna Chhabra final
Brexit is expected to have some negative impacts on the Indian economy, such as increased uncertainty in global markets negatively impacting global growth and Indian exports. Specific sectors like IT, automobiles, metals and textiles that rely on exports to the UK or EU could face reduced demand. However, India's economy remains relatively stable due to positive domestic factors like good monsoon rains boosting agriculture and fiscal measures like the 7th Pay Commission. Brexit is unlikely to significantly impact India's GDP growth in the short term. In the long run, India and the UK hope to negotiate a new free trade agreement to mitigate Brexit's effects on bilateral trade and investment.
weekly news 11-15 oct
China has shut down 1,355 coal mines with a total production capacity of 125.19 million tonnes this year to eliminate outdated mines and reduce carbon emissions. Tata Group donated $50 million to Harvard Business School, the largest gift from an international donor in the school's 102-year history. The People's Bank of China said the yuan should not be a "scapegoat" for US economic problems and actions limiting Chinese imports would violate WTO rules.
ppt on brexit
Brexit has negatively impacted stock markets and government bonds worldwide, while boosting gold and the US dollar. The UK economy is predicted to decline by 3.6% over two years, with higher inflation, unemployment, and lower wages and home prices. India may see a weaker rupee, higher current account deficit, and negative effects for its IT sector from reduced discretionary spending and increased costs in Britain.
brexit
Brexit refers to the UK's decision to leave the European Union following a 2016 referendum. The document discusses the potential economic impacts of Brexit on the UK, EU, and global economy. It notes that Brexit will likely have negative short and long-term economic consequences for the UK through reduced trade and investment. The uncertainty surrounding future UK-EU trade relations could also negatively impact the EU and global economies by increasing volatility in financial markets and trade flows. India's economy may be affected through reduced UK investment and immigration, challenges for Indian companies operating in the UK, and pressure on India's stock and currency markets from Brexit uncertainty.

Brexit will have economic impacts on Pakistan. The UK is Pakistan's largest trading partner in the EU and a quarter of Pakistani exports to the EU go to the UK. Brexit could reduce these exports by making Pakistani goods less competitive due to a weaker British pound. It may also negatively impact the large Pakistani diaspora in the UK who send billions in remittances. Specific sectors like textiles, which make up most exports to the EU, could see lower demand. Gold prices in Pakistan rose due to Brexit as investors sought safe havens, and textile company stock prices may fall from reduced exports to the UK and EU.
News
The document provides a weekly news summary covering several topics from the period ending March 10, 2010, including India informing the US that sector-wise tariff elimination is not feasible, Indian manufacturers now being able to sell products in Japan, an Australia-India free trade agreement expected to boost bilateral trade, the US approving a 'YUAN' bill over China's objections that it could hurt world economic growth, and news about a verdict on Ayodhya and losses for Mahindra Satyam.
Tour to Saint Petersburg, Russia
The document provides details of a planned 7 day trip to Saint Petersburg, Russia. It includes an itinerary with attractions and estimated costs. Key points include: flights from Delhi to Saint Petersburg for Rs. 24,011; renting a car for 5 days for Rs. 1,919.90; hotel for 5 nights at Rs. 5,840; estimated food and expenses of Rs. 55,589.90 total. Places to be visited include the Hermitage Museum, St. Petersburg Philharmonic, and boat tours along the Neva River.

Current economic theory assumes that nations will voluntarily adopt “fair trade” practices.
The U.S. is in a strong bargaining position to negotiate balanced trade relative to partners that drive our trade deficit – in a trade war, they have a lot more to loose.
The U.S. should proactively adopt a tit-for-tat approach to foster trade liberalization and fairness or risk losing the “international trade war”.

It notes that BRICS was formed in 2001 and accounts for over 40% of the global labor force.

Excerpt from BBC World News article on Venezuela
Venezuela's black economic magic
By John Sweeney BBC, Caracas
17 February 2016
“Statistics of any kind in Venezuela should be taken with a swig of the local rum - like beer, unavailable in a restaurant we visited in Caracas - but under Maduro the Bolivar is currently suffering from inflation of 141%, according to the government's own figures. The IMF predicts it will hit 720% later this year.
One number is that the country is $120 billion in the red, with oil revenue - responsible for nine-tenths of the state's export revenue - collapsing. Without the oil money, the country can't feed itself.
There are $10bn in debt payments due later this year and Venezuela can't borrow easily because the international market suspects it will default. Investors are already spooked because it has expropriated billions of dollars worth of foreign-owned companies.
Governing party MP Ramon Lobo told Newsnight: "The economic war has become even more vicious. It's an attack on the real economy. The oligarchs who still dominate food production are looking for a way to hang us by cutting production on purp
Murder numbers are notoriously dodgy in South American, but Caracas, by some estimates, suffered nearly 4,000 murders last year, making it one of the most dangerous cities in the world. “
And then there is the Zika plague - the mosquito-borne virus that some doctors believe is responsible for a spike in cases of creeping paralysis, Gillain-Barré syndrome, and, in Brazil, deformed babies. (The World Health Organisation has urged caution because the science on Zika is not yet proven.)
Maduro recently raised the number of suspected Zika cases from 4,700 to 5,221 with three deaths. Dr Jorge Luis Hernandez-Rojas, of the Chacao Health Agency in Caracas is part of a group of doctors who are close to the opposition. He told Newsnight: "We fear the true number of Zika cases is not 4,000 but 400,000." No-one knows for sure.
…..
The eyes of Hugo Chavez stare down at you from sites across the capital. But what they look down on is a nation gone to seed: grungy high-rise buildings, the concrete crumbling, stray dogs pecking at the rubbish, heavily armed police toting shotguns at checkpoints and traffic jams.
Petrol here is the cheapest in the world - our driver could fill up his tank for pennies - an absurdity that Maduro dare not address lest he trigger riots, like the "Caracazo" chaos in 1989 in which hundreds died.
Financial meltdown, political stalemate: it might not come to it but some people fear this could lead to violence and even a military coup.”
TTIP trade deal: Germans rally in Hannover against US-EU talks
April 23, 2016

Thousands of people have marched in the German city of Hannover against a proposed Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) deal.
They say the deal would drive down wages, and weaken environmental protection and labour rights.

3 Trade Blocs And Development
Trade agreements have led to the formation of regional trading blocs that reduce trade barriers between member countries while maintaining protections against non-members. This has increased regional trade but perpetuated some global protectionism. The largest blocs include the European Union, NAFTA, and ASEAN, while developing countries have organized as the G20 to advance their interests. Poorer countries have benefited less from trade growth than wealthy nations and remain dependent on commodities rather than manufacturing.
Global shippinganalyticsmonthly
The document discusses the impacts of the global economic slowdown and stimulus packages on shipping markets. It notes that:
1) Shipping markets have been hit by tightening trade finance and weaker economic growth. Central governments have enacted stimulus packages to varying effect, with China's package most integral due to its focus on infrastructure and steel consumption.
2) Trade finance restrictions wiped out an estimated 15-20% of dry bulk trade. The G20 summit proposed a $250 billion package to increase trade financing.
3) Stimulus packages aim to boost consumer spending but their effects on commodity and goods trade, and thus shipping demand, remain uncertain and will take time to materialize. Long-term resolution of trade finance issues
Ch02 Kotabe
The document discusses the increasingly globalized economic environment and factors influencing country competitiveness. It covers the rise in international trade and foreign direct investment. Major trade agreements and organizations like the WTO are examined. Emerging markets and regional economic blocs are important recent trends. Information technology is changing competition while intellectual property issues remain. Multinational corporations now hail from many countries and account for over half of global GDP.
The world in 2016 towards the depression and the totaliarianism
This document discusses the gloomy economic prospects for 2016 according to the OECD, including slow growth in the US, EU, Japan, Australia and New Zealand. It notes that Germany is the only major EU country maintaining positive but low GDP growth. Among BRICS countries, Brazil and Russia face recessions due to falling commodity prices while China is slowing. Three new global trade agreements (TPP, TTIP, TiSA) are being negotiated in secret that threaten democracy and favor transnational corporations in services, which account for most economic activity. The agreements aim to standardize laws around finance, social security and intellectual property in ways that benefit corporations at the expense of social and environmental protections.

This document summarizes recent trends in global trade based on a review of emerging issues. Chapter 1 introduces the topics to be covered, including the impact of the 2008 economic crisis, World Trade Organization negotiations, bilateral and regional trade agreements, and the policy linkages between trade and climate change. Chapter 2 discusses the global economic context dominated by the 2008 financial crisis and resulting recession. It outlines the severe downturn in global trade and disproportionate impacts on poorer developing countries. Chapter 3 analyzes developments in WTO negotiations, including the lack of a breakthrough on agriculture and industrial goods, with key differences remaining around special protections for developing countries.

Solvay has established a Highly Protected Risk culture to anticipate and mitigate risks. They develop scenarios and response plans for uncertainties. Their risk assessment process involves updating a risk matrix and individual risk sheets with critical risks and mitigation actions. For Brexit, Solvay set up a task force to evaluate risks and opportunities to protect value and stay competitive, even though analysts say Solvay is well positioned due to its diverse portfolio.
WTO
The World Trade Organization (WTO) regulates international trade between member countries. It was established in 1995 to replace the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade. There are currently 161 member countries. Key WTO agreements cover agriculture, textiles, technical barriers to trade, investment measures, government procurement, and other areas. The Agreement on Agriculture aims to reform trade and reduce barriers in the agriculture sector through commitments on domestic support, export subsidies, and market access. India's commitments under the agreement involve limiting tariffs and subsidies while maintaining certain protections. The Bali agreement advanced negotiations on reducing trade barriers and supporting developing countries. Recent WTO cases have involved disputes between countries like the US, EU, China, and India over issues such as
whatifchinaslowsdown-whatifscenario
1) China is experiencing a slowdown in economic growth, with official GDP figures likely overstating the weakness and other indicators like imports and electricity production pointing to lower actual growth.
2) This is due to rising wages reducing competitiveness, the end of using increased construction investment to boost growth, and monetary policy losing effectiveness despite attempts to ease further.
3) Longer term, China's potential growth is expected to decline as productivity gains slow and population aging accelerates sharply after 2020 as the one-child policy impacts the labor force.
Fta
Free trade areas (FTAs) are agreements between countries to reduce or eliminate tariffs and other trade barriers on most goods and services traded between the member countries. FTAs have increased rapidly since the second half of the 20th century as countries seek to exploit comparative advantages and expand export markets. The largest FTA is the European Union, which began with 6 countries and has expanded to 15 members, 11 of which use the euro. Other major FTAs include NAFTA between the US, Canada, and Mexico, as well as agreements being negotiated for the Asia-Pacific region and South America. While FTAs provide economic benefits, they also face opposition from those concerned about loss of domestic jobs or unfair competitive advantages between members and
The 3 Major Trade Blocs of the World
This document provides information on three major trade blocs: the European Union, the USMCA (United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement), and BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa). It outlines the member countries, economic relationships, and trade statistics for each bloc. For the EU, it lists the top 10 trading partners and details trade with India. For the USMCA, it compares changes from NAFTA. And for BRICS, it provides intra-bloc trade shares and discusses India's role in promoting economic cooperation.

There are $10bn in debt payments due later this year and Venezuela can't borrow easily because the international market suspects it will default. Investors are already spooked because it has expropriated billions of dollars worth of foreign-owned companies.
Governing party MP Ramon Lobo told Newsnight: "The economic war has become even more vicious. It's an attack on the real economy. The oligarchs who still dominate food production are looking for a way to hang us by cutting production on purp
Murder numbers are notoriously dodgy in South American, but Caracas, by some estimates, suffered nearly 4,000 murders last year, making it one of the most dangerous cities in the world. “
And then there is the Zika plague - the mosquito-borne virus that some doctors believe is responsible for a spike in cases of creeping paralysis, Gillain-Barré syndrome, and, in Brazil, deformed babies. (The World Health Organisation has urged caution because the science on Zika is not yet proven.)
Maduro recently raised the number of suspected Zika cases from 4,700 to 5,221 with three deaths. Dr Jorge Luis Hernandez-Rojas, of the Chacao Health Agency in Caracas is part of a group of doctors who are close to the opposition. He told Newsnight: "We fear the true number of Zika cases is not 4,000 but 400,000." No-one knows for sure.

The eyes of Hugo Chavez stare down at you from sites across the capital. But what they look down on is a nation gone to seed: grungy high-rise buildings, the concrete crumbling, stray dogs pecking at the rubbish, heavily armed police toting shotguns at checkpoints and traffic jams.
Petrol here is the cheapest in the world - our driver could fill up his tank for pennies - an absurdity that Maduro dare not address lest he trigger riots, like the "Caracazo" chaos in 1989 in which hundreds died.
Financial meltdown, political stalemate: it might not come to it but some people fear this could lead to violence and even a military coup.”
TTIP trade deal: Germans rally in Hannover against US-EU talks

3 Trade Blocs And Development
Trade agreements have led to the formation of regional trading blocs that reduce trade barriers between member countries while maintaining protections against non-members. This has increased regional trade but perpetuated some global protectionism. The largest blocs include the European Union, NAFTA, and ASEAN, while developing countries have organized as the G20 to advance their interests. Poorer countries have benefited less from trade growth than wealthy nations and remain dependent on commodities rather than manufacturing.
Global shippinganalyticsmonthly
The document discusses the impacts of the global economic slowdown and stimulus packages on shipping markets. It notes that:
1) Shipping markets have been hit by tightening trade finance and weaker economic growth. Central governments have enacted stimulus packages to varying effect, with China's package most integral due to its focus on infrastructure and steel consumption.
2) Trade finance restrictions wiped out an estimated 15-20% of dry bulk trade. The G20 summit proposed a $250 billion package to increase trade financing.
3) Stimulus packages aim to boost consumer spending but their effects on commodity and goods trade, and thus shipping demand, remain uncertain and will take time to materialize. Long-term resolution of trade finance issues

The world in 2016 towards the depression and the totaliarianism
This document discusses the gloomy economic prospects for 2016 according to the OECD, including slow growth in the US, EU, Japan, Australia and New Zealand. It notes that Germany is the only major EU country maintaining positive but low GDP growth. Among BRICS countries, Brazil and Russia face recessions due to falling commodity prices while China is slowing. Three new global trade agreements (TPP, TTIP, TiSA) are being negotiated in secret that threaten democracy and favor transnational corporations in services, which account for most economic activity. The agreements aim to standardize laws around finance, social security and intellectual property in ways that benefit corporations at the expense of social and environmental protections.

Solvay has established a Highly Protected Risk culture to anticipate and mitigate risks. They develop scenarios and response plans for uncertainties.

WTO
The World Trade Organization (WTO) regulates international trade between member countries. It was established in 1995 to replace the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade. There are currently 161 member countries. Key WTO agreements cover agriculture, textiles, technical barriers to trade, investment measures, government procurement, and other areas. The Agreement on Agriculture aims to reform trade and reduce barriers in the agriculture sector through commitments on domestic support, export subsidies, and market access. India's commitments under the agreement involve limiting tariffs and subsidies while maintaining certain protections. The Bali agreement advanced negotiations on reducing trade barriers and supporting developing countries. Recent WTO cases have involved disputes between countries like the US, EU, China, and India over issues such as
whatifchinaslowsdown-whatifscenario
1) China is experiencing a slowdown in economic growth, with official GDP figures likely overstating the weakness and other indicators like imports and electricity production pointing to lower actual growth.
2) This is due to rising wages reducing competitiveness, the end of using increased construction investment to boost growth, and monetary policy losing effectiveness despite attempts to ease further.
3) Longer term, China's potential growth is expected to decline as productivity gains slow and population aging accelerates sharply after 2020 as the one-child policy impacts the labor force.
Fta
Free trade areas (FTAs) are agreements between countries to reduce or eliminate tariffs and other trade barriers on most goods and services traded between the member countries. FTAs have increased rapidly since the second half of the 20th century as countries seek to exploit comparative advantages and expand export markets. The largest FTA is the European Union, which began with 6 countries and has expanded to 15 members, 11 of which use the euro. Other major FTAs include NAFTA between the US, Canada, and Mexico, as well as agreements being negotiated for the Asia-Pacific region and South America. While FTAs provide economic benefits, they also face opposition from those concerned about loss of domestic jobs or unfair competitive advantages between members and
