Emerging Market Megatrends

This book provides an assessment of the progress that has been made, and what policy reforms are needed, in order to address the challenges facing many emerging markets. Emerging markets in many parts of Asia, Africa, the Middle East and Latin America are still facing tremendous economic challenges such as poverty, inequality, weak governance and inadequate infrastructure. The developed nations are no longer insulated from this crisis in developing countries, as globalisation and economic integration have also amplified the transmission effects to the West through immigration flows, cross-border crime and the proliferation of international terrorism.
