The shift in business and economic power from countries of the north to the fast-developing markets and economies of the south - not only China, India and Brazil, but also the Middle East and parts of Africa. 2. The result of unstoppable forces, including the volatile global financial system, digitization, the rise of state capitalism and a new global middle class that is both youthful and urban- forces by which industries and economies rapidly emerge and change the global playing field.

As individuals, companies, and countries struggle to recover from the economic crisis, many are narrowly focused on forecasts for the next week, month, or quarter.

Sempre in pochi hanno capito se l'acquisto della Pirelli sia un vantaggio per noi o per il colosso statale ChemChina.

Politik und Geldpolitik in Europa haben sich von den Grundsätzen verabschiedet, die in der Vergangenheit die Garanten des Erfolgs für den Kontinent waren. Die Finanzkrise und ihre nicht enden wollenden Nachbeben verleiten eine verunsicherte und überforderte Elite an den Schaltstellen der Macht dazu, ihr Heil in Staatsplanung, Intervention und Bürokratie zu suchen.
