Why Economic Slowdown
My Dear Friends
I happen to attend the seminar on global crisis by Dr. Jean-Pierre Lehmann, Professor of International Political Economy, IMD Lausanne, Switzerland & Founding Director of The EVIAN He did throw light on following issues. What do you need to do effectively in these turbulent times? What issues are keeping top executives up at night in this global crisis? What are the prospects for globalization and implications for India?
I am here with highlighting the crux of it. 1.
The global business environment has undergone the most profound transformation since last two centuries
2.
Driven by the global market and ICT revolution
3.
Collapse of the first and second /third world paradigm
4.
The dramatic re –emergence of China
5. The emergence of multiple new actions and instruments –eg: Mittal steel, Google, CNOOC, SWIF, etc 6.
The closing of the developing –developed countries gap
7.
With significant global benefits-but very unevenly spread
8.
Unprecedented opportunities and threats.
The reasons for global crisis are : 1)
Excessive Liquidity and Cheap credit
2)
The “Chimerica effect”
3)
Absence of rules and oversight
4)
Institutional deficiencies
Why Economic Slowdown 5)
Hubris
6)
Defective corporate governance (incentives and greed0
7)
Technology (the pompidou syndrome)
