1 - Chartbook Global Risk Analysis & October 1, A visual essay The - chartbook is a visual essay to depict key similarities and differences between these two emerging economies, which are poised to change the global economic landscape. s GDP per capita is now. times higher than s (in USD PPP terms). Until the early 199s, GDP per capita in and was at comparable levels, but adopted wide-ranging economic reform one decade earlier than. The Chinese economy is much more integrated with the world economy through international trade and investment, which helps to explain its stronger rate of GDP growth during most of the past decades. For its economic development, has relied on industry and on services. s ratios of domestic savings and investment to GDP are roughly double those of s. Editors: J. A.-Mund / N. Brandt / S. Hansakul, Frankfurt Both economies currently enjoy strong external positions, with ample foreign exchange reserves. Higher oil prices are not likely to have a significant adverse impact on external liquidity. and have low external debt as a percentage of GDP, and the ratio of short-term external debt to foreign reserves is low. Despite declining fiscal deficits, the level of public sector debt is a cause for concern, especially in. In particular, interest payments as a percentage of general government revenue are very high in, making the prospect of fiscal consolidation more remote. Excess domestic liquidity presents a bigger challenge to than. M in is heading toward with domestic credit almost 17. This explains the rapid rise in CPI inflation during, on which the Chinese authorities are still keeping a tight rein. Surveys indicate has better corporate governance standards and its companies are more commercially-driven. This explains why, despite s superior economic growth and macroeconomic stability, s rate of return on assets has been much higher, non-performing loans in the banking sector lower, and stock market performance much better. Social indicators reflect generally improving living conditions for the average Chinese. also enjoys superior physical infrastructure, although s availability of skilled workers, especially engineers, is much better regarded. s early steps to liberalise its economy and invest heavily to modernise its physical infrastructure gave it a substantial edge over in terms of income per capita levels. They also made a more attractive destination to foreign investors. However, although started economic reforms only a decade later than, it is far more advanced in its institutional infrastructure and corporate governance. This is reflected in contrasting outcomes: foreign direct investment is considerably lower than in, but returns on investment are better on average. The key to unlock s potential to rival as an FDI destination is a decisive effort by the n authorities to push ahead with reforms. 1
