Abstract
The short-term economic outlook has improved significantly in nearly all parts of the world economy over the past year. Growth has continued at a rapid pace in the North American economies, helped by the renewed vigour in equity prices in recent months and further strong growth in labour productivity. GDP in the United States is estimated to have risen by over 4 per cent in 1999, for the third year in succession. We expect to see further growth of 3¾ per cent this year. The European Union economies have embarked on a cyclical upturn, helped by accommodative monetary policies and the impact of improved external demand.
