THE SWEET SPOT OF ASIA
DEFIES THE GLOBAL CRISIS
By Chris Wright • The group of countries that belong to the Association of Southeast
Asian Nations* (Asean) form a region that stands out in the world economy for
one reason above all others: It’s not in a mess. While the U.S. struggles to revive,
Europe wrestles with sovereign debt, India battles the deficit, and Chinese growth
slows, the Asean economies have largely stayed strong, underpinned by low debt,
healthy banking sectors, high reserves and a demographic sweet spot.
