Pakistan an emerging market economy: IMF report

[Will_Bite]

Who is Asad Umer ? IMF is a global financial body and investors around the world trust its forecast

till a few years ago, Asad Umer was good enough to be on the State Bank Board, and good enough for PMLN to court him heavily. And now who is he. Yeah.

As for IMF, its a lending institution, in case you forgot. IMF forecast for any country is limited to its ability to 'repay' loans...and that ability is almost always defined by the 'conditions' IMF imposes on that country. Ishaq Fraud has already barked about going for another IMF program after the current one expires next year.

Wesay aik tayir-e-lahoti hua krta tha woh kahan hai aajkal???

 

[notsospecial]

if facts and figures of IMF are considered accurate.growth rate of 5% in next five years is meaningless for country like pakistan.we need atleast 7% growth rate just to be at par with repidly growing countries like bangladesh and india.in next 4 to 5 years bangladesh is going to beat pakistan in GDP.this country was having only half our gdp just few years back.

India Fudging GDP to Show Faster Growth Than China



Indian government now claims that the country's GDP grew by 6.9% in 2013-14, well above the 4.7% growth the country had announced earlier.

Based on the latest methodology, it is claimed that the Indian economy expanded 7.5 percent year-on-year during the last quarter, higher than 7.3 percent growth recorded by China in the latest quarter, making it the fastest growing major economy in the world, according to Reuters. Is it wishful thinking to make Indian economy look better than China's?

The GDP revisions have surprised most of the nation's economists and raised serious questions about the credibility of government figures released after rebasing the GDP calculations to year 2011-12 from 2004-5. So what is wrong with these figures? Let's try and answer the following questions:

1. How is it possible that the accelerated GDP growth in 2013-14 occurred while the Indian central bankers were significantly jacking up interest rates by several percentage points and cutting money supply in the Indian economy?

2. Why are the revisions at odds with other important indicators such as lower industrial production and trade and tax collection figures? For the previous fiscal year, the government’s index of industrial production showed manufacturing activity slowing by 0.8%. Exports in December shrank 3.8% in dollar terms from a year earlier.

3. How can growth accelerate amid financial constraints depressing investment in India? Indian companies are burdened with debt and banks are reluctant to lend.

4. Why has the total GDP for 2013-14 shrunk by about Rs. 100 billion in spite of upward revision in economic growth rate? Why is India's GDP at $1.8 trillion, well short of the oft-repeated $2 trillion mark?

Questions about the veracity of India's official GDP figures are not new. These have been raised by many top economists. For example, French economist Thomas Piketty argues in his best seller "Capital in the Twenty-First Century that the GDP growth rates of India and China are exaggerated. Picketty writes as follows:

"Note, too, that the very high official growth figures for developing countries (especially India and China) over the past few decades are based almost exclusively on production statistics. If one tries to measure income growth by using household survey data, it is often quite difficult to identify the reported rates of macroeconomic growth: Indian and Chinese incomes are certainly increasing rapidly, but not as rapidly as one would infer from official growth statistics. This paradox-sometimes referred to as the "black hole" of growth-is obviously problematic. It may be due to the overestimation of the growth of output (there are many bureaucratic incentives for doing so), or perhaps the underestimation of income growth (household have their own flaws)), or most likely both. In particular, the missing income may be explained by the possibility that a disproportionate share of the growth in output has gone to the most highly remunerated individuals, whose incomes are not always captured in the tax data." "In the case of India, it is possible to estimate (using tax return data) that the increase in the upper centile's share of national income explains between one-quarter and one-third of the "black hole" of growth between 1990 and 2000. "

In 2015, India's real gross domestic product growth was at about 7.26 percent compared to the previous year.

Same IMF is saying Pakistan will miss its growth target and there is no increase in investment. Pakistan is developing country and under PML-N the growth rate of 4.xx is one of the lowest among in south Asia.

The report also paints a mixed picture of Pakistan’s economy, saying that the country will miss its annual growth rate target of 5.5% by one percentage point and that investment will also remain flat at 15.1% of the total size of national economy during the current fiscal year.
