Ten years after the financial crisis, our Annual Conferences in Asia asked “Is the global economy finally back to health?” We looked at what has changed in the world economy and developed world financial sectors since the crisis and what these changes suggest about the risks of a new crisis occurring. We then considered the outlook for the US, EU and Japan before turning to China, the largest contributor to global growth over the past decade. We explained why the concentration of power in China around Xi Jinping was likely to result in a continued deceleration in trend growth there so that China was much less likely to be a significant outperformer in future. That slowdown, we argued, would have very different impacts in different parts of the world. One country that could start to shine is India, which could soon be as big a driver of global growth as China. Finally, we focused in detail on prospects for Australia as it looks to life after its mining boom.
