GROWTH RATE OF EMERGING ECONOMIES[Pick the date]

The emerging economies are the major attractions for the investors given the slow and the sluggish growth of the developed markets. As per the data released by IMF, economic growthrate of the developing economies will improve continuously over the next five years whereinthe developed economies may not grow that well. Bigger emerging economies such as that ofIndia and China are expected to show decent growth. As per various estimates and forecasts, emerging economies in totality will contribute around 70 percent of total growth with India and China as major contributors (Barnes, 2016). Various factors are responsible which led to the growth of the emerging economies as against the growth of the developed economies. Factors such as negative bond yields on large country debts, an upward surge in the prices of oil, stability of the economy of China and the postponement of the Fed rate increase from a long time now are the main reasons behind the insurgence of the economies of the developing countries.

Further to this, many of the emerging economies are oil exporters and the kind of upward movement felt in this sector is very unlikely to be maintained in the year 2017 since the predictions show that the average price of Brent will rise only to $51/ barrel from $43/barrel which would slow down the economic growth of the emerging countries (Yesilada 2016).
