BRIC economies: real GDP growth varies 6

BRICs: Investment and Saving rates are still relatively low in Brazil Differences in investment rates, also in saving rates 7

What has changed within BRICs since 2003? All BRICs have become global players on both economic and geopolitical fronts – With similarities and differences in the globalisation process Similarities in the process, even if differences in the magnitude –Increase in potential growth: increase in saving and investment to GDP ratios, but to a lesser extent for Brazil –Increase in globalisation: trade and financial integration and Foreign Direct Investment –Decrease in country risk (1) : increase in foreign exchange reserves, decrease in external public debt 8 (1) In the narrow sense: sovereign risk and transfer risk

What has changed within BRICs since 2003? Differences in terms of growth sustainability Brazil: Higher potential growth, probably sustainable India: New model of growth (more linked to manufactured goods), sustainable under certain key conditions China: Current growth model not sustainable in the medium term Russia: Growth still highly dependent on oil price Differences in terms of external financial vulnerability China: Very low external financial vulnerability Brazil: Strong decrease in external financial vulnerability India: Moderate decrease in external financial vulnerability – Large companies still depend on the financing in foreign currency Russia: No decrease in external financial vulnerability – Even if the problem of external public debt has been solved, large private companies have become overindebted, mainly in foreign currency. Dollarization of the economy is still high. 9

BRICs: Summary Brazil: from moderate GDP growth (2.5%-3% per year) with high vulnerabilities to slightly higher growth (4%), more sustainable and less vulnerable Russia: no significant changes during the decade: fairly high growth (3%-6%) but still very vulnerable to commodity prices and financial shocks India: from fairly high growth (5%-6%) with vulnerabilities to high and more sustainable growth (7%-8%) China: very high growth relatively stable (roughly 10%) and not too much vulnerable(1). But the growth model relying on exports and investment may not be sustainable in the medium-long term 11 (1) Low vulnerability to external financial shocks, high vulnerability to downturn in the global business cycle

Conclusion: What next in the medium term? (3) Brazil: Probably the best “mix” within BRICs in terms of growth potential and risks GDP growth potential is accelerating progressively to 4-5% per year but probably not to 7-9% as India or China – The process of acceleration has started recently (saving, public and private investment, financial intermediation, decrease in real interest rate …). The pursuing of this movement, notably for infrastructure investment, is key to consolidate this evolution Nevertheless, Brazil’s growth has become more sustainable and less vulnerable to external shocks than that of China and, to a lesser extent, that of India – From 1994-2007(1), Brazil has solved huge problems of macro economic imbalances, established credible economic policies, strongly increased its State and corporate governance, diversified its export base (both on a geographical and sector point of view) and reduced its external financial vulnerability Even if is GDP growth potential considered closer to that of Russia, its sustainability is higher and its vulnerability is much lower – Notably in terms of export diversification, State and corporate governance, monetary policy capability, financial sector robustness and external financial vulnerability 12 (1) Particularly since 2003-04
