Global Economics & Country Risk Conference / November 2014

Back to the future? • The US is a locomotive of global growth, after an eight-year

hiatus. • US oil production will exceed that of Saudi Arabia for the

first time since 1991. • Oil prices are at their lowest levels since the end of the

recession. • A strengthening dollar is helping many other economies,

much like the 1980s, 1990s and 2000s. • Is there a new “cold war”? • Is the “peace dividend” eroding?

Global Economics & Country Risk Conference / November 2014

The world economy: Reasons for optimism • Global growth has been remarkably stable at 2.5% - not great, but not

bad either. • Lower oil prices will likely boost 2015 growth by 0.2 to 0.4 percentage

points. • Monetary stimulus by the Bank of Japan (aggressive), People’s Bank of

China (small so far), and the European Central Bank (promised, but not delivered yet) will support growth. • US and UK economic growth remains solid (at around 2.5% to 3%). • Japan’s growth will be sustained but weak. • The Chinese government will do whatever it takes to prevent growth

from collapsing. • India is a bright spot. • World trade growth is beginning to pick up (very) modestly. © 2014 IHS

The world economy: Reasons to be concerned • Europe’s growth has stalled, and Germany has not been immune. • Deflation is a growing menace in the Eurozone. • Some large emerging markets (notably Brazil and Russia) are in • • • • •

recession, and the prospects do not look good. Debt levels in many parts of the world (Europe, Japan, China, other emerging markets) are dangerously high. The risks of policy mistakes (too much austerity, botched central bank “exit strategies”, and lack of structural reforms) are elevated. In particular, apprehensions regarding the Chinese governments ability to juggle its multiple challenges are rising. Geopolitical troubles could reverse the recent drop in oil prices. Longer-term, the probability of “secular stagnation” in may parts of the world (especially the Eurozone and some large emerging markets) is higher now than before.

Oil prices have retreated as strong supply growth eclipses geopolitical concerns • The continuing boom in US oil production is lowering prices and

stabilizing global oil markets. • Weak global oil demand (especially from China), high Saudi Arabian

production, and a surge in Libyan production have contributed to recent price declines. • Downside risks: OPEC is slow to react, the Saudis fight for market

share, and global demand remains lackluster. • Upside risks: Stronger demand growth (thanks to lower prices),

renewed disruptions in Libya, slower production growth in North America, and rising geopolitical tensions. • Bottom line: prices will likely remain in the mid-$80s (for Brent, and

mid-$70s for WTI), but there could be a lot of volatility.

Winners and losers from low oil prices • Winners: • • • • •

US consumers are likely the biggest winners – with a “tax cut” worth at least $70 billion. European consumers will benefit proportionally less because of high gasoline taxes. Emerging market consumers will also benefit less because of large fuel subsidies. Energy-intensive industries (e.g. agriculture and transportation). Governments in oil-importing countries with large fuel subsidies.

• Losers: • US producers (although IHS estimates that current break-even point is well below

current prices). • Major oil exporters – especially those with difficult public finances, where the “fiscal break-even point” is above $100, including Iran, Russia, and Venezuela.

• Net effect: • In the US, the net effect on consumers and producers of oil is still a small positive,

despite rising US production. • Similarly, the net effect on oil-importing and oil-exporting countries around the world will be a small boost to growth.

Fiscal and monetary policies • Austerity remains in force in the Eurozone and will likely become more intense

in Japan next year. • The US, UK, and Japan have had tight fiscal policies but loose monetary

policies – the Eurozone has had tight fiscal and monetary policies … • … This helps to explain why the single currency area is doing so poorly. • Not only are the ECB’s policies tight, they have de facto become tighter. • Japan has once again provided big monetary stimulus because of weak growth

and anticipated fiscal tightening in 2015. • The Fed and the Bank of England have stopped expanding their balance

sheets, but any interest rate hikes are still a long way off (summer of 2015 at the earliest). • In the final analysis the benefits of QE (lower interest rates, improved bank

balance sheets, higher asset prices, and a boost in confidence) have outweighed the potential costs (inflation, financial instability, and increased inequality). © 2014 IHS

The US economy is gaining momentum • Accelerations in consumer spending and homebuilding, along with continued

robust capital spending, will support growth. • The oil price decline, if sustained, will add around 0.2 to 0.4 percentage point to

growth. • Consumers will cautiously boost spending in response to gains in employment

and real disposable income, lower oil prices and improved finances. • The recovery in homebuilding is proceeding slowly, as young adults delay

household formation and homeownership. • Global market growth, strong cash flow, replacement needs, and technological

advances reinforce capital spending. • Interest rates will rise over the next three years as monetary accommodation is

withdrawn. • The stronger dollar is still low by historical standards and not (yet) a big threat.

Canada will achieve moderate, balanced growth • Real GDP growth picked up in the second quarter, led by surging

exports, auto sales, and homebuilding. • The net impact of the oil price decline will be a small positive (around

0.1 percentage point). • Gains in employment and income will support household spending, but

rising debt burdens will restrain it. • The Bank of Canada will begin to raise interest rates in late 2015. • Continued development of the oil sands is raising energy production. • The drop in oil prices has put downward pressure on the Canadian

dollar, which will remain below parity with the US dollar. • Western provinces, led by Alberta, will achieve the fastest growth,

although weaker oil prices will knock a few points off growth. © 2014 IHS

44

Global Economics & Country Risk Conference / November 2014

Economic reforms shape Mexico’s outlook • Mexico is benefiting from solid growth in the US economy through

trade, capital inflows, and remittances. • The construction cycle is bottoming out; exports and public investment

(including transportation infrastructure) will support 4% growth. • The oil price drop will likely shave off 0.2 percentage off 2015 growth. • Global automakers are investing in substantial new capacity in Mexico. • Consumer spending growth will pick up in response to income gains. • Constitutional changes will open Mexico’s oil and gas industries to

foreign investment and eventually reverse the decline in oil production. • President Peña Nieto’s agenda also includes reforming education and

labor markets, increasing competition in communications industries, and broadening the tax base. © 2014 IHS

45

Global Economics & Country Risk Conference / November 2014

Western Europe has turned the corner, but risks of deflation are rising • After a protracted recession, the Eurozone economy is growing again – though

growth this year will only be around 0.8%. • Rising consumer and business confidence, low interest rates, improving export

markets, and pent-up demand for durables will support growth. • Lower oil prices will add about 0.2 percentage point to growth • Extended fiscal austerity, still-significant banking sector problems, and weak

consumer finances will restrain growth in several countries. • The United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, and Sweden will lead the region’s

growth, while Italy, Spain, Greece, and Portugal will lag. • The ECB averted a meltdown, but has done little for growth—moreover falling

inflation is becoming a bigger risk (there is already deflation in Italy, Spain, Greece, Portugal, Cyprus and Slovakia), pushing up real interest rates and the euro. • Western Europe is vulnerable to a further escalation of the crisis in Ukraine. © 2014 IHS

Japan’s economy on a better but sluggish growth path • The sales tax increase from 5% to 8% in April is creating economic volatility:

After a surge in the first quarter, consumer spending fell in the second, but is expected to rise in the third quarter. • IHS expects 1.1% growth this year and 1.2% in 2015, and a small boost from

lower oil prices (0.1 to 0.2 percentage point) • The Bank of Japan’s aggressive monetary stimulus and sales tax increases will

spark consumer price inflation of 3% this year and 2% in 2015 – this spring the core CPI rose the fastest since 1991 • Future growth will depend on how effectively the new Abe administration

implements reforms in labor and product markets – so far there is been very timid. • The recent stimulus by the Bank of Japan make it more likely that the October

2015 (second round) sales tax hike will go through. • The huge cash hoards of Japanese companies are both a source of concern

and a potential basis of strength. © 2014 IHS

Asia-Pacific will achieve solid, not spectacular, growth • Asia’s performance will be shaped by political transitions and the pace

of domestic macroeconomic reforms. • India’s economy is reviving, but the new BJP government has been

slow to use its mandate to launch essential economic reforms. • Indonesia’s new government seems on track to enact reforms such as

the reduction of fuel subsidies. • Political turmoil and the military coup in Thailand are undermining

economic performance and foreign investment in manufacturing. • As the global economy improves, South Korea, Taiwan, and Vietnam

will see faster growth, supported by rising high-tech exports. • The region’s outlook for consumer spending is bright, thanks to robust

income growth and deepening financial markets. • Risks include a China hard landing, slow progress on economic

reforms, and territorial disputes in the South China Sea. © 2014 IHS

China’s economic growth has slowed • Real GDP increased 7.3% year on year in the third quarter, down from

7.5% in the second quarter and the slowest pace since early 2009. • Lower oil prices will only add about 0.2 percentage points to growth

next year. • Persistent weakness in real estate and related heavy industry was

offset by strength in exports and consumer spending. • The recent easing of liquidity conditions will have little real impact on

new financing due to tightening bank regulations. • A hard landing triggered by a financial crisis is not the biggest threat

facing China; a more serious concern is prolonged low growth. • In the medium term, China will need to reform state-owned enterprises

and the financial sector – otherwise a Japan-style scenario with lots of “zombie” companies is a big risk. © 2014 IHS

Global Economics & Country Risk Conference / November 2014

India’s growth recovery remains tentative • Relapses in manufacturing production suggest continued weakness in

consumer spending and private investment. • Agricultural output is likely to suffer from poor monsoon rains. • Wholesale price inflation subsided to a five-year low of 2.4% year on

year in September, while consumer price inflation moderated to 6.5%. • The Reserve Bank of India is likely to hold interest rates steady into

2015 because of potential price pressures from currency depreciation. • The BJP’s initial policy steps have been cautious. Much needs to be

done to open markets, upgrade infrastructure, reduce food and fuel subsidies, and raise productivity. • The recovery in economic growth will be gradual, but long-term growth

potential is high if reforms are implemented. • Growth will be boosted (0.3-0.4 percentage point) by lower oil prices. © 2014 IHS

South America: Deteriorating investment climates • The region’s economic growth has slowed in 2014, with Argentina, Venezuela,

and Brazil in recession. • Falling prices for oil and other commodities are hurting export income. • Low oil prices will help Argentina, Brazil and Chile, but hurt Colombia, Ecuador

and Venezuela. • In Argentina, a sovereign debt default, high inflation, foreign-exchange controls,

and import restrictions are obstacles to growth. • Venezuela faces a long recession with soaring debt-servicing costs, high

inflation, product shortages, and political unrest • In Colombia and Peru policy stimulus and resource development are

supporting robust growth. • Tax increases are slowing Chile’s growth. • The region’s long-term challenges include inadequate infrastructure, restrictive

business environments, and income inequality. © 2014 IHS

Brazil’s economy faces competitive challenges • High labor and capital costs, an overvalued currency, complex taxation,

and inadequate infrastructure are hurting competitiveness. • Fixed investment has been declining since mid-2013. • High debt burdens and slow job growth are restraining consumer

spending. • Industrial production began to recover in July and August, suggesting

that the economy is stabilizing after a mild two-quarter recession. • The re-election of Dilma Rousseff means more of the same in terms of

failed policies – which is not encouraging for growth prospects. • As a net importer of oil, Brazil will see a small positive impact from the

recent drop in oil prices.

The Ukraine crisis influences Emerging Europe • The Eurozone’s gradual recovery will help the economies of Central

Europe and the Balkans by increasing trade and capital flows. • The Russia-Ukraine conflict brings the risk of trade and energy-supply

disruptions. Ukraine’s economy will contract 7% in 2014. • Russia’s aggression in Ukraine and the resulting sanctions will do long-

term damage by discouraging investment in Russia. • Despite weak export markets, Poland’s economy is benefiting from

monetary stimulus and a revival of domestic demand. • In Turkey, policymakers’ efforts to reduce the large current-account

deficit and stabilize the economy will dampen economic growth. • Both these large Central European countries will see a boost (of up to

0.5 percentage point) in 2015 growth from lower oil prices.

Russia’s outlook deteriorates as sanctions increase and oil prices fall • Russia’s incursions in Ukraine have led to new sanctions, capital flight,

reduced credit availability, and declining investment. • The central bank has raised its policy rate from 5.5% to 9.5% in 2014

and has effectively stopped intervening in currency markets to support the fragile rouble. • High inflation is eroding consumer purchasing power and confidence. • Real GDP is projected to decline 0.3% in 2014, followed by a bigger

drop of 1.7% in 2015 due to the cumulative impact of lower oil prices and sanctions. • Sanctions will reduce access to oil field technology and Western

capital, leading to a decline in oil production in 2016 and beyond. • Unfavorable demographics, outmoded manufacturing capacity, and an

overburdened infrastructure will limit medium- and long-term growth. © 2014 IHS

The Middle East and North Africa • Regional political instability and the war against the Islamic State and

Khorasan cloud the economic outlook. • Lower oil prices will hurt Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Iran, UAE, and Libya,

but help Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, and Tunisia. • After two years of contraction, Iran’s economy is stabilizing – sanctions

on the energy and financial sectors will likely remain in place. • Political and security risks limit Egypt’s economic growth. • Addressing job creation, economic diversification, and competitiveness

will be critical to regional stability over the medium term.

Sub-Saharan Africa will sustain rapid growth • Commodity export revenues remain a key driver of growth. • Expanding domestic markets, income gains, and regional integration

will support 5-6% economic growth in the decade ahead. • Macroeconomic management is improving substantially, poverty is

declining, and foreign direct investment is rising. • Poor infrastructure (especially power generation), political instability,

and corruption remain obstacles to economic development. • An end to mining strikes in South Africa is bringing renewed growth,

but producers face strong labor and electricity cost pressures. • Lower oil prices will help South Africa and Zambia, but hurt Angola,

Mozambique and Nigeria.

What could bring about much slower global growth? • US – growth in the labor force, capital expenditures, and

productivity remain anemic for an extended period. • Secular stagnation and persistent deflation in Europe –

especially in the crisis economies. • Lack of structural reforms and further degradation of growth in

the emerging world – including China and India. • Further slowdown (reversal?) in globalization. • Onerous regulatory and tax environments. • Badly conceived (and implemented) energy and environmental

policies that could thwart the development of unconventional energy. © 2014 IHS

71

IHS Board Meeting/ August 2014

Not all the long-term risks are on the downside • Inherent resilience of the US economy manifests itself. • Unconventional energy revolution goes global. • Progress on European structural reforms payoff. • Success of Abenomics leads to a Japanese economic

renaissance. • Key emerging markets develop effective reform plans. • Globalization becomes an engine of growth again. • Tax and regulatory reforms are implemented in key economies. • Existing and emerging technologies pay off in terms of higher

productivity growth.

Implications of global economic trends • Global growth will be more US-centric. • Europe and Japan will do a little better, but not as well as the US. • The sharp deceleration in emerging markets is worrisome, and a

return to the boom years of the 2000s is unlikely—but another crisis is also unlikely. • Emerging markets will not enjoy another resurgence without stronger

productivity growth. • China’s locomotive role is diminishing. • Lower oil prices, more monetary stimulus, and more solid US growth

will provide the foundations for a modest acceleration of global growth. • Europe and some emerging markets have the highest risk of secular

stagnation. © 2014 IHS
