BRICs (Brazil, Russia, India and China)

Goldman Sachs predicts China and India, respectively, to be the dominant global suppliers of manufactured goods and services while Brazil and Russia would become similarly dominant as suppliers of raw materials.

Goldman Sachs argues that the economic potential of Brazil, Russia, India, and China is such that they may become among the four most dominant economies by the year 2050. By 2050, the BRIC economies will account for 44%of global GDP (Source: Grant Thornton International Business Report)

India and China are the only real BRICs in the wall. India and China are investing in higher education and going for "intellectual capital", while Russia and Brazil depend too much on the current commodity price boom and are not making the necessary investments in infrastructure and human capital.

India has 10 of the 30 fastest-growing urban areas in the world and, based on current trends, we estimate a massive 700 million people will move to cities by 2050. This will have significant implications for demand for urban infrastructure, real estate, and services. The Indian economy will surpass the United States (in US$) by 2043. Tata Motors, looks likely to add to the list soon, by buying two grand old names of British car making, Jaguar and Land Rover, from America's enfeebled Ford. As a symbol of a shift in economic power, this is hard to match.

All reputable economists agree now that the future is in the emerging markets. These markets already are the main source of economic growth in the modern world and their role is projected to increase significantly in the next 20 years.

According to the World Bank, the five biggest emerging markets are China, India, Indonesia, Brazil and Russia. Other countries that are also considered as emerging markets include Mexico, Argentina, South Africa, Poland, Turkey, and South Korea.

Global Foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows grew in 2007 to an estimated US$1.5 trillion. FDI flows to developed countries in 2007 grew for the fourth consecutive year, reaching US$1 trillion. Flows were particularly buoyant in the United Kingdom, France, and the Netherlands. The United States maintained its position as the largest single FDI recipient. The European Union (EU) as a whole continued to be the largest host region, attracting almost 40% of total FDI inflows in 2007.
