Nowadays, companies are beginning to recognize that brands are amongst their most valuable
assets. They understand that brands are becoming ever more powerful in driving business growth.
Strong brands generate superior returns and protect businesses from risk. Google is currently 4 lOMoAR cPSD| 48632119
holding the top position, but it has to keep innovating if it wants to remain number one. Blackberry
and Apple are the two fastest-growing brands in the top 100, and china Mobile is growing steadily, too.

The economy is stable following the problems of the past two years. By following a tight monetary
policy, the government has reduced the interest rate to 2%. For borrowers, after going up
dramatically, the inflation rate is now down to 8%. The last six months have seen a slight
improvement in the exchange against the dollar. For the country as a whole, the GDP has grown by
0.15%. In terms of jobs, the unemployment rate continues to be a problem, as it is still 16%. In
order to stimulate the economy and attract foreign investment, the government is offering new tax
incentives, as well as making a renewed effort to reduce government bureaucracy. Finally, a large
skilled labor force means there could be attractive investment opportunities over the next five years.
