2012 growth hit but glimmers of hope emerge
Our latest sectoral forecasts – produced using our new
Global Industrial Model covering 67 countries based
upon the NACE rev 2 sector classification system –
suggest that prospects for 2012 have once again
darkened. Global manufacturing output growth this year
is now expected to be just 3%, its slowest pace since
the 2008/09 recession and down from the 4.3%
expansion posted in 2011. However, there are
glimmers of hope emerging as the divide between dire
(and often still deteriorating) news in parts of Europe
and better-than-expected outturns from other parts of
the globe – notably the US – increases.
