Consensus growth rates are forecast at 1.3% for FY2014. UK growth prospects are sound, supported by stronger business confidence. Consensus growth rates of 2.8% are expected. Whilst tapering is approaching, the US economy should continue to be supported by the Fed over the short term. Growth rates of 3.0% are expected in FY2014. 6
Domestic & Global Economies Emerging Markets have continued their positive growth trajectory. In particular the Chinese economy which is expected to grow between 7.5% - 8.0% in FY2014. As a result of aggressive stimulus incentives, Japan is expected to record growth rates of above 2.0%. Despite low interest rates and a slight fall in the AUD, the RBA recently lowered economic forecasts for 2014. That said, the high end of forecasts is still expected to be ~3.0% growth. 7
