	Growth models Economies aim to achieve sustainable growth. In order to do this, they must look at ways to reduce their dependence on foreign investment and demand. This often results in the development of technology-led sectors and high-value capabilities, causing unprecedented shifts in the world’s business landscape.

	Crises as catalysts Just as a new world order can create lucrative opportunities for profit, the reconstruction of a crisis-stricken area can give countries and businesses alike a boost. Such areas can also become attractive targets for investors.

	Changing business models As financial health improves, wages rise and expenditure increases, impacting infrastructure, goods and services. Government support, the right demographics and well-educated workforces in emerging markets means private consumption is tipped to lead overall economic growth. In the corporate sector, upcoming economies are home to numerous prosperous brands which are making more and more of an impression on international markets.
