The Middle East rode out the global recession better than the major industrialized economies, and the region is well positioned to benefit from the global recovery. The oil-exporting nations of the Gulf drew on their ample reserves in 2009 to support expansionary fiscal policies. Government spending will continue to increase, even if oil prices decline, with sovereign wealth funds available to finance potential fiscal deficits, says Moody's Investors Service. The Gulf Cooperation Council's fast-growing population of 39 million, with half below the age of 20, means there is a need to create jobs, says Kamal Ahmed of Bahrain's EDB. Kuwait's central bank cut its discount rate a half point to 2.5% in February to encourage banks to lend and help fund development. Meanwhile, new markets are o...
FORT LEE, N.J., June 30, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- The National Inflation Association - http://inflation.us - today released the following U.S. inflation update to its NIA members: NIA is very disturbed by President Obama's decision to sell off oil from the U.S. emergency oil reserve, in an attempt to drive down oil prices. One week ago it was announced that the U.S. and other oil-consuming nations that are a part of the International Energy Agency (IEA) will begin releasing 60 million barrels of oil from their reserves, with 30 million barrels coming from the U.S. government-owned reserve. They hoped that by flooding the market with excess supply, they would cause an artificial forced liquidation of oil futures contract holders who bought using leverage.

Another major border dispute has broken out between Israel and Lebanon, one that offers each coun- try the choice of sharing prosperity or inflict- ing on each other an economic catastrophe. The Israeli Cabinet on Sunday approved the coordinates of an exclusive economic zone de- lineating waters up to 200 nautical miles off its coast in which it claims oil and gas exploration rights. The borders of the area overlap with those submitted by the Lebanese government six months ago to the United Nations in delineating its own claims for an exclusive economic zone. The overlap area in dispute consists of about 5.8 square miles. What makes the dispute particularly charged is that probes in the past year by offshore rigs in Israeli waters south of the disputed area have uncovered vast reserves ...
In April, the World Bank approved a $20 million loan to finance a major economic development program in Zambia. The program is a joint effort between the international community and the Zambia government to revitalize the local economy by reforming the public sector and improving that national business climate. One of the biggest challenges faced by Zambia and many other African countries is how to use local resource reserves to generate wealth and sow the seeds to long-term growth. Indeed, despite this potentially huge source of income for the local population, many resource-rich developing nations remain desperately poor, often because of corrupt, irrational governments.
BRUSSELS - EU nations agreed a $113 billion bailout deal for Ireland on Sunday to help the debt-struck country with its banking crisis, and sketched out new rules for future emergencies in an effort to restore faith in the euro currency.
