  • Press Release
    Press release Zurich/Geneva, 17 April 2019 Global Powers of Luxury Goods: Swiss luxury companies are taking the digital path to accelerate growth • The sales of the world’s Top 100 luxury goods companies grew by 11% and generated aggregated revenues of USD 247 billion in fiscal year 2017 • Richemont, Swatch Group and Rolex remain in the top league of Deloitte’s Global Powers of Luxury Goods ranking • All Swiss companies in the Top 100 returned to growth in FY2017, but with only 8% increase, they lagged behind the whole market for the third time in a row • Luxury goods companies are making significant investments in digital marketing and the use of social media to engage their customers Despite the recent slowdown of economic growth in major markets including China, the Eurozone and the US, the luxury goods market looks positive. In FY2017, the world’s Top 100 luxury goods companies generated aggregated revenues of USD 247 billion, representing composite sales growth of 10.8%, according to Deloitte’s 2019 edition of Global Powers of Luxury Goods. For comparison, in FY2016 sales were USD 217 billion and annual sales growth was as low as 1.0%. Three-fourth of the companies (76%) reported growth in their luxury sales in FY2017, with nearly half of these recording double-digit year-on-year growth. Switzerland and Hong Kong prevail in the luxury watches sector Looking at product sectors, clothing and footwear dominated again in FY2017, with a total of 38 companies. The multiple luxury goods sector represented the largest sales share (30.8%), narrowly followed by jewellery and watches (29.6%).

    https://www.project-syndicate.org/onpoint/china-s-growth-odyssey-2017-02 PROJECT SYNDICATE: PS on Point Issue Adviser: a critical review of Project Syndicate’s hardest-hitting commentaries on an urgent global issue. University of California, Davis, economist Wing Thye Woo engages the views of Keyu Jin, Justin Lin, Stephen Roach, and other Project Syndicate commentators, to ask whether China can avoid the “middle-income trap,” even as it reckons with Donald Trump’s presidency. China’s Growth Odyssey 1 Fred Dufour/Getty Images China’s steadily declining rate of economic growth is a problem for both China and the world economy. Now that US President Donald Trump is set to wreak havoc on global stability, can China still hope to achieve the widely shared prosperity it has long sought? FEB 17, 2017 SHANGHAI – Will China’s sociopolitical stability and economic dynamism continue to hold? It’s a question China-watchers are asking more frequently now than at any time in the past three decades. This fall, the 19th Congress of the Communist Party of China will decide (or not) President Xi Jinping’s successor in 2022, while also replacing (maybe) five members of the seven-member Politburo Standing Committee. The result, one hopes, will not be a new period of turbulence like that which the election of Donald Trump has unleashed on the United States. The potential for political uncertainty in China comes at a time when its economy’s health seems to be waning, and when Trump’s presidency could pose a direct challenge to its growth model.

  • Credit Constraints and Growth in a Global Economy
    Credit Constraints and Growth in a Global Economy Nicolas Coeurdacier St´ephane Guibaud SciencesPo Paris and CEPR SciencesPo Paris Keyu Jin London School of Economics April 3, 2015∗ Abstract We show that in an open-economy OLG model, the interaction between growth differentials and household credit constraints—more severe in fast-growing countries— can explain three prominent global trends: a divergence in private saving rates between advanced and emerging economies, large net capital outflows from the latter, and a sustained decline in the world interest rate. Micro-level evidence on the evolution of age-saving profiles in the U.S. and China corroborates our mechanism. Quantitatively, our model explains about a third of the divergence in aggregate saving rates, and a significant portion of the variations in age-saving profiles across countries and over time. JEL Classification: F21, F32, F41 Key Words: Household Credit Constraints, Age-Saving Profiles, International Capital Flows, Allocation Puzzle. ∗We thank three anonymous referees, Philippe Bacchetta, Fernando Broner, Christopher Carroll, Andrew Chesher, Emmanuel Farhi, Pierre-Olivier Gourinchas, Dirk Krueger, Philip Lane, Marc Melitz, Fabrizio Perri, Tom Sargent, Cedric Tille, Eric van Wincoop, Dennis Yao, Michael Zheng, seminar participants at Banque de France, Bocconi, Boston University, Cambridge, CREST, CUHK, the European Central Bank, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, GIIDS (Geneva), Harvard Kennedy School, Harvard University, HEC Lausanne, HEC Paris, HKU, INSEAD, LSE, MIT, Rome, Toulouse, UCLA, University of Minnesota, Yale, and con- ference participants at the Barcelona GSE Summer Forum, the NBER IFM Summer Institute (2011), the Society for Economic Dynamics (Ghent), Tsinghua Macroeconomics workshop, and UCL New Developments in Macroeconomics workshop (2012) for helpful comments.
