"While long-term sentiments indicate restrained improvements, signs point to accelerating growth over the next few years
SHORT HILLS, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 18, 2014--
Dun & Bradstreet (NYSENB), the world's leading source of commercial information and insight on businesses, today announced the results of its Global Economic Update for 2014, based on deep analysis of its proprietary business data. The report confirms that the global economy is headed towards a period of modest growth as worldwide economic growth is driven by the gradual acceleration in developed economies.
In what is becoming a recurring theme, worldwide growth in real GDP is estimated at 2.7 percent, above last year's marginal gain of 2.4 percent and well below 2007's pre-recession rate of 5.2 percent. Although downside risk persists, Dun & Bradstreet predicts a continuation of this gradual acceleration over the next few years, citing a 3.3 percent worldwide growth increase in real GDP for 2015, with further advancements to occur over the next three years."
