The Global Economic Power Map is Redrawn

In just 25 years, the world economy has radically transformed.

• Japan’s GDP shrunk from $4.97T to $4.18T the only major economy in this list with a decline.
• The U.S. added a staggering $20T to reach $30.51T – still leading, but the gap with China is closing.

A few reflections:

• China and the U.S. now control nearly HALF the world’s GDP.
• The EU held its ground by integrating markets, not just adding capital.
• Japan’s demographic crisis and stagnation are catching up.

We’ve moved from a G7 world to a G2 reality … with the EU as the balancing bloc.

What does this mean for your business strategy?

• Supply chains are shifting.
• Capital flows are shifting.
• Talent and influence are shifting.

If your growth strategy doesn’t include China, the U.S., and the EU … you’re not playing in the real game.

Where do you see the next economic leap coming from?

My bet is on India.
