IMF urges caution on inflation in Qatar – The International
Monetary Fund (IMF) has cautioned that although inflationary
pressures in Qatar appear to be contained at the moment,
policymakers need to remain vigilant. The authorities intend to
phase in investment projects gradually, keeping in mind Qatar's
2006-08 experience with double-digit inflation. However, if signs
of overheating emerge, the authorities need to smoothen out
fiscal spending, and deploy further macro-prudential measures
such as liquidity withdrawal operations in case of excessive
credit growth. IMF said that this strategy can be supplemented
by the authorities' efforts to identify and remove bottlenecks in
the supply chain. (Gulf-Times.com)
Qatar's budget surplus to reach QR40bn – Qatar's budget
surplus is expected to reach QR40bn by the end of the current
fiscal year. According to sources, the surplus stood QR27bn
during the second quarter. The country's GDP is expected to
touch QR200bn for the fourth quarter of the current fiscal year.
In the second and third quarters, it reached QR180bn and
QR185bn, respectively. Oil prices rose to $105 per barrel
against the budget assumption of $65 per barrel, which has led
to the significant surge in the surplus. The Ministry of Finance is
giving final touches to the 2014-15 budget. The ministry has
already received reports from various ministries and government
bodies regarding their projects for the new financial year.

Collapse in exports, producer prices threaten China’s
growth target – The biggest drop in China’s exports since 2009
and a deepening factory-gate deflation highlight the challenges
faced by Chinese Premier Li Keqiang in achieving this year’s
economic growth target of 7.5%. Overseas shipments
unexpectedly declined 18.1% in February from a year earlier as
compared to analysts’ median estimate for a 7.5% increase.
Similarly, producer prices fell 2%, the most since July 2013,
extending the longest decline since 1999. Distortions from the

numbers last year, along with a larger-than-projected increase in
imports, make it harder to assess the true picture of the global

they gauge the effects of the nation’s first onshore corporatebond default. (Bloomberg)
BIS: Global debt exceeds $100tn as governments binge –
The Bank for International Settlements (BIS) stated that the
amount of debt globally has soared 40% to reach $100tn since
the financial crisis, as governments borrowed to pull their
economies out of recession and companies took advantage of
record low interest rates. According to data compiled by
Bloomberg, the $30tn increase in debt since mid-2007, is in
contrast with a $3.86tn decline in the value of equities to $53.8tn
in the same period. The jump in debt as measured by Swissbased BIS in its quarterly review is almost twice the US' GDP.
Borrowing has soared as central banks suppress benchmark
interest rates to spur growth after the US subprime mortgage
market collapsed and Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.'s
bankruptcy caused the worst financial crisis since the Great
Depression. As per the Bank of America Merrill Lynch's Global
Broad Market Index, yields on all types of bonds, from
governments to corporate and mortgages, average about 2%,
down from more than 4.8% in 2007. (Bloomberg)
BCC: UK economy to return to pre-recession peak soon –
According to the British Chambers of Commerce (BCC),
Britain's economy should exceed its pre-recession growth peak
in the next few months. BCC upgraded its forecasts for the fullyear GDP growth to reach 2.8% in 2014 and 2.5% in 2015, a
slight upgrade from its December forecasts. Unlike most its
developed economy peers, Britain's economy in 2013 was still
1.4% smaller than its pre-recession peak reached in early 2008.
The BCC said the economy will finally exceed that level in the
second quarter of this year. So far, the UK’s economic recovery
has been led by consumers and the housing market, and the
Bank of England has said business investment and exports
need to pick up for the recovery to be sustained. The BCC
expects 6.6% growth in business investment this year, followed
by 5.7% in 2015, but it warned that growth will remain below
pre-crisis levels for some time. (Reuters)
Japan’s economy expands less than initially estimated in
4Q2013 – Japan’s economy expanded less than estimated in
4Q2013 and its current account deficit widened to a record high
in January, highlighting risks to Abenomics as a sales-tax
increase looms. The Cabinet Office said that GDP grew at an
annualized 0.7% over the previous quarter, less than a
preliminary estimate of 1%. The finance ministry said the current
account deficit widened to $15.4bn, the highest since 1985.
While growth is set to surge this quarter before the bump in the
sales tax next month, Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s task is to
steer the nation through a projected contraction in April-June
2014. The prime minister is due to publish detailed growth
measures in June, while economists forecast the Bank of Japan
to add to the unprecedented easing to keep the Japan’s
economy on track for a 2% inflation target. According to recent
data, business investment rose 0.8% from the previous quarter,
while onsumer spending increased 0.4%. (Bloomberg)

GCC insurance growth tops other economies, focus on
profit needed – According to insurance rating agency AM Best,
growth in the GCC insurance industry has outpaced that of other
developed and emerging economies, but insurers ought to focus
on profits than top line. Gross premiums written (GPW) in the
GCC had a CAGR of 21% during 2002-12, the same as Brazil
and China, while Russia was at 18% and India at 16%. AM Best
said a market growth of 21% enables companies to more easily
sustain the shocks associated with emerging markets. Growth in
the GCC will remain higher than in other developed markets but
lower than in the recent past, with a big portion of the premiums
still coming from motor and medical insurance. The rating
agency said that insurers will now have to focus on profitability
rather than top-line growth. (Gulf-Times.com)
