...Vietnam: risk assessment Sovereign Currency Banking Political Economic Country risk risk sector risk structure risk risk risk June CCC B CCC CCC CCC CCC 2012 Sovereign risk Positive: Although the budget deficit will widen in 2012, rapid nominal economic growth and the recent rise in Vietnam's foreign-exchange reserves will support the fiscal position. Moreover, much of the government's external borrowing has been provided on a concessional basis. Currency risk Stable: In recent months the slowing rate of consumer price inflation has led to an easing of downward pressure on the dong, while the decline in the net foreign asset position of the country's banks has paused. Banking sector risk Stable: The rapid pace of credit expansion in the past few years has raised concerns over the potential for a sharp increase in non-performing loans (NPLs). There are also worries about the accuracy of official data on NPLs. Political risk The Communist Party of Vietnam exerts a tight grip on power, ensuring a high degree of political stability. Rows over land leases are emerging as a cause of popular unrest but are unlikely to threaten the party's hold power. Economic structure risk Lacklustre growth in private consumption will depress imports in 2012, but the trade deficit will expand sharply once domestic demand recovers from 2013. Workers' remittances...

...1 POLICY REFORMS AND TRADE LIBERALIZATION IN BANGLADESH I. MAIN FEATURES OF BANGLADESH ECONOMY GDP and its composition. During the fiscal year 2002-2003, the GDP of Bangladesh stood at around $52 billion. The growth rate of GDP has picked up in recent years. Thus, during 1980-90, it grew annually at 3.7 per cent on average, barely above the population growth rate. On the other hand, it approached an average annual rate of 5 per cent during 1991-2002. The relative shares of consumption and savings in the GDP witnessed modest changes during this period. In 1991, consumption accounted for over 86 per cent of the GDP, while in 2002 it fell to nearly 82 per cent. Correspondingly, the shares of savings in GDP rose by a quarter over this period. During the same period, the investment/GDP ratio increased from 17 per cent to 23 per cent. Within this, the ration of public investment to GDP remained stagnant around 7 per cent, while that of private investment increased from 10 per cent to 17 per cent of GDP. Changing sectoral distribution. As indicated by changes in the sectoral distribution of the GDP, the economy of Bangladesh underwent important structural transformations over the last three decades. At independence in 1971, agriculture was the dominant sectors accounting for over 55 per cent of the total GDP. The industrial sector was small, contributing less than 10 per cent of the GDP. The services including transportation and power accounted for the rest of the GDP. The...

Member firms of the KPMG network of independent firms are affiliated with KPMG International. KPMG International provides no client services. All rights reserved. Executive Summary Is the worst over? A cautious but growing consensus among economists and industry analysts suggests that after more than two years of turbulence, the global economy in general and the chemical industry, in particular, are entering calmer waters.1 While a full recovery for chemical companies is not expected this year, certainly, the earnings releases across the industry for the first half of 2010 suggest that growth is returning at a faster rate than many had expected.2 Increased production in the domestic auto industry is supporting new demand for US chemical products, but the construction sector – another major market for US chemicals – is recovering more slowly. However, after massive layoffs, improvements in cash management and operational belttightening, the US chemical industry is expected to realize a year-over-year increase of around 7 percent in 2010, according to the American Chemistry Council (ACC).3 At the same time, this recovery presents its own set of challenges...

...Executive Summary Industry and macro-environmental analyses of the international restaurant industry provides an overview of the industry and reveals the conditions that impact competitiveness and profitability of the industry’s players. The industry is split in two sectors: full-service restaurants (FSR) and limited-service restaurants (LSR). FSRs typically have a wait-staff; LSRs do not have wait-staff. The top five countries, in terms of total number of foodservice outlets, are: China, India, Brazil, Japan, and the US. The industry is of low concentration. Combined, the top industry players make up less than 3% of total global industry revenues. In terms of size, 2013 global sales were $2.6T, up 4.9%. The 2013 global labor force was 62.4M employees, up 2.4%. In accordance with Porter’s Five Forces framework, the forces that shape competition in the restaurant industry have a moderate to high impact on competitiveness. There is a moderate threat of new entrants and a high threat of substitutes. Buyers have a high degree of bargaining power and suppliers have a moderate degree of bargaining power. The restaurant industry is highly competitive and experiences intense rivalry. In terms of macro-environmental factors, emerging markets around the world over are having an impact on how restaurants execute strategy both domestically and abroad. The growth of the middle class in emerging markets, such as China and India, presents a new demographic and an opportunity...
