With the threat of unsustainably high interest rates in the countries of the eurozone periphery having disappeared, the path to moderate recovery was supposedly open, to be followed by some acceleration in growth in 2015.

The second path is to follow the German model of accelerating structural reforms and corporate restructuring to increase productivity growth while keeping wage growth moderate. But it took a decade for Germany to reduce its unit labor costs that way if Greece or Spain were to start today, the short run costs of resource reallocation would be large, while the benefits in terms of higher growth would take too many years to achieve.

The coastal strip in the South has a moderate climate.

For these reasons, I take a more moderate view, predicting that China s average potential GDP growth will fall to 5 6 by 2030. This expectation is based on a conditional convergence framework that relies on data generated by China s unique growth experience, as well as those of other economies, over the last three decades.
