“Building the Microeconomic Foundations of Competitiveness,” in The Global Competitiveness Report (World Economic Forum), “Clusters and the New
Competitive Agenda for Companies and Governments” in On Competition (Harvard Business School Press, 2008), and ongoing research on clusters and
competitiveness. No part of this publication may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted in any form or by any means - electronic, mechanical,

- 2. The World Economy in Early 2012
• A weak macroeconomic environment is constraining growth in the
global economy (e.g., Europe, US, China)
– Failures of political leadership
• However, sustainable fiscal policies are necessary but not sufficient
to restore healthy growth
• The only way to ensure long term job and prosperity growth is through
fundamental improvement in competitiveness, especially for higher
income economies

- 3. What is Competitiveness?
• Competitiveness is manifested in the ability of companies operating in a country or region
to compete successfully in international markets while simultaneously improving the
living standards of citizens
• Competitiveness depends on the long term productivity with which a nation uses its
human, capital, and natural resources
– Competitiveness is not achieved through low wages or low currency
– Productivity sets sustainable wages and standard of living
– It is not what industries a nation competes in that matters for prosperity, but
how productively it competes in those industries
– Productivity in a national economy benefits from a combination of domestic and
foreign firms
• Competitive businesses create rising incomes and good jobs
• Nations compete to offer the most productive environment for business
• Competitiveness is not a zero sum game

Policies and Political
Institutions
Endowments
• Productivity ultimately depends on improving the microeconomic capability of the economy and the
sophistication of local competition
• Macroeconomic competitiveness sets the potential for high productivity, but is not sufficient
• Endowments create a foundation for prosperity, but true prosperity is created by productivity in the use
of endowments
