Invest.climate; Macroeconomic conditions international comparison 1990-2012

In this table international comparisons are made of macroeconomic conditions on the basis of a number of elementary performance indicators: — Inflation; — Long-term interest rate; —Net borrowing/lending of consolidated general government sector; General government debt; — Unemployment; — Imports and exports, related to Gross Domestic Product (GDP); —Goods trade with non-EU countries; — Container transport. These indicators give an overall picture of the international competitive position of a country. The macroeconomic circumstances define the basic climate within which companies develop their activities. Good macroeconomic conditions ensure a favourable climate in which enterprises can function well. Note: Similar definitions are used to compare the figures presented internationally.
