Episode description

Though the subprime mess and rising oil prices slammed the U.S. economy during much of 2007 other emerging markets -- especially China and India -- seem to be on a roll. China’s growth rate of more than 11% is likely to continue and India too should be able to sustain a high rate of GDP growth even if it slows from last year’s 9%. Latin America meanwhile is cautiously optimistic but could see a moderate decline in 2008. The Knowledge at Wharton Network sites -- including Universia Knowledge at Wharton China Knowledge at Wharton and India Knowledge at Wharton -- spoke with Wharton faculty and other experts about what to expect during the coming year.
