December 2012 - What to expect next yearFGV Brazil
IN DECEMBER 2011, most of the analysts interviewed by The Brazilian Economy did not hesitate to say that 2012 would be similar to 2011— that is, somewhat predictable and uneventful. And, in fact, there was no major turbulence in the domestic economy in 2012. But the year now ending did produce at least two surprises. The first is that estimates of gross domestic product (GDP) growth have been heading steadily downward and it is expected to hit only 1%—just a third of what even the most conservative projections expected early in the year.
The Brazilian Economy is one of the oldest publications for expert economic analysis of both the Brazilian and international economies. Through this publication, FGV’s Brazilian Institute of Economics and Finance (FGV/IBRE) compares different periods of the economy, assessing both macroeconomic considerations and scenarios related to finance, administration, marketing, management, insurance, statistics, and price indices.

ETV - Bad loans, ECB intervention and competitive advantagesHugo Mendes Domingos

1. Top 5 - Review of the Year 2012
Just before 2013 begins, we recall the most popular posts of 2012, which shed light on creativity
and innovation, the economy and the crisis. These 5 posts attracted the most views from
February to December 2012 (as we started blogging on this platform in February). If you missed
these articles the first time around, now is your time to see why our readers found these pieces
so compelling.
The fifth most viewed post was Types of Innovation and Economic Growth posted in November
2012. This post discussed the different ways in which innovation can lead to economic growth,
based on an article published by Clay Christensen in the NYT.
Number 4 was Bad loans, ECB intervention and competitive advantages which addressed the
problems of the portuguese financial situation regarding bad loans. We argue that the bad loans
problem will be solved once the innovation challenge is properly addressed.
Portugal’s austerity measures and the impact on business innovation , a post about the lack
of impact of the announced austerity measures on business innovation, was number 3 in terms
of readership. This post was published on 20 September, after the Portuguese prime minister's
announcement (on 7 September) of the Government's intention to change the rates of social
security contributions. This announcement sparked a political crisis, which culminated in large-
scale demonstrations.
The second place goes to Stop obsessing about the next black swan and innovate which
addresses the themes of business innovation and financial modeling.
The top post of 2012 is Innovation and Portuguese film production from January, which
describes the problems and barriers met in film production in Portugal, which stifle innovation
in this industry.
Due to the nature of blogging, these statistics are not 100% relevant, since posts published in
early 2012 attract more viewers as time passes. The most viewed post has been online for nearly
12 months, but it is likely for instance that "Types of innovation and economic growth"
(published in November) will attract more readers when compared on a like-for-like basis.
This was a year of change, during which we commented on some of the major political and
business developments and tried to put forward actual examples of good practices. It was a
pleasure to interact with our readers and we hope we can continue to count on you in 2013.
Have a great year!
