The world economies rating is compiled annually andoften carries some changes. Although leaders know everything, as they say, "in person", and here without changes for several years. This rating is based on the study of the economic development of states. It includes almost all countries, which makes research one of the most important for understanding the overall picture of the world.
If you calculate the total value of goods and services,produced in the territory of a single country, the indicator of the Gross Domestic Product will be obtained, in other words, GDP. Thus, this indicator gives an estimate of the volume of economic production in general. If, for example, two countries are taken Kazakhstan and Portugal, which rank 46 and 47 positions respectively ($ 203.1 and $ 201 billion), the unreliability of economic development to the position on the list will become obvious. Portugal is based on its profits has finished products, i.e. here the entire production cycle takes place. The basis for Kazakhstan is the export of minerals, with development taking place due to extensive production, which can not continue for a long time. Although in recent years prospects for intensification have been outlined, but they are episodic, and practically do not bring changes in the overall picture. So, we turn to the rating of the economy of the world of Top-5 by the results of 2015.
In the past year, the brilliant work of Parliament andeconomic system of the country allowed England to break into the Top-5, overtaking France. This country has a long financial and industrial history. In this matter, she has no equal. The Central Bank works exclusively, the industry exports chemicals, light and heavy industrial products, engineering plays a huge role, high technologies. Great importance is played by the services sector and tourism.
But the main role in the figures belongs to the financial gurus and the CentroBank of the country, they are the ones that pursue a policy of stabilizing the pound, which affects the GDP indicators, and it is 2853.4 trillion. USD.
This country has been for many yearsremains in the lead. Germany is a post-industrial country, on the basis of which industry occupies only 20% of the country's GDP. Just think, many believe that the basis of development is engineering with its BMW, Volkswagen, Audi, Maybach, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche and others, light and heavy industry. But, as it turned out, the main thing is the sphere of services, agriculture and education. Science plays a huge role, it is her development that allows Germany to make discoveries, new inventions, which immediately give way to the market. All this combined with the skillful financial activities of the government of the country gives 3413.5 trillion. USD and provides the 4th step of the rating "World economies of the world".
A chain of islands in the East, which is calledthe country of the rising sun, has simply astounding economic indicators. If we take into account the fact that Japan practically does not own minerals and other natural resources. For many years she competes with the USA in the field of high technologies and inventions, and who is the leader is a big question. It is no accident that the robotics exhibitions are held mainly in Japan. And everyone knows that if the purchased equipment has a seal "produced in Japan", this gives an implicit guarantee of its quality, which is only one company SONY. Great importance is played by the mentality of the Japanese - amazing performance and responsibility. They have it in their blood! The economies of the world's countries indirectly depend on Japan, more precisely from the Tokyo Stock Exchange, which influences many financial events. Traditionally, this country supplies high-quality cars to the world markets, such as Toyota, Honda, Mitsubichi, Mazda and others, household appliances, computers and other electronics. The role of the banking system is also very high. All this gives Japan a deserved bronze rating. The GDP of this country is 4210.4 trillion. USD.
China is not a country of postindustrialcharacter, but it has so entered into the rush of development that the economy of the world, at least, most countries began to envy her. GDP - 11211.9 trillion. USD! This is the second position. China confidently presses the United States and analysts predict that in less than 10 years, its economy may become the first in the world, overtaking America. And this is not accidental, the GDP growth is 10% annually, no state of our rating can boast of such a rating. China is the unconditional leader in the export of finished products. We can say that the PRC clothes and clothes all CIS countries, and that there the CIS, goods from Chinese factories are abundantly represented in the markets of Western Europe and America. In the industry of China for a long time there is no equal, but apart from it, space technologies, construction and mining of rare metals used in electronics are developing, that is why in China there is a huge number of companies producing modern computers. It turns out that even the well-known company Apple manufactures in China.
Incomparable leaders in terms of GDP formany years in a row are the United States. The main advantage of America is the dollar, it acts as a reserve currency for more than 50% of the world's states, and the States are skillfully using it. But do not think that only the dollar takes this country to the first line of the rating. The US industry, high and information technologies, the services market - everything develops here, and the dollar supports this development. The economy of the world directly depends on the state of affairs in the United States. Therefore, if economic difficulties begin in America, they take place in most countries of the world. Recall at least the "depression" of the early 30-ies of the XX century. With the lowering of quotations on the New York Stock Exchange, one of the most powerful global economic crises in the history of mankind began. Concerning the GDP of the leader of the rating, it is at the level of 18124.7 trillion. USD and is 30% of the global indicator.
If we divide all the state's earnings intothe number of inhabitants of the country, you get the GDP per capita and here the rating is completely different, in which the above-mentioned leaders do not even enter the top ten. Qatar, Luxembourg, Singapore, Brunei, Kuwait are ranked 1 to 5 in this rating, where the economy is determined. The world around here plays an important role. Three of the five leaders take positions due to their favorable geographical location on the coast of the Persian Gulf and almost 100% of their exports are hydrocarbons.
Напряженная международная обстановка приводит к difficult economic situation. Some countries suffered from this more than others, as a result of which the economy began to decline. In this regard, there is a rating of "Worst economies of the world", headed by Venezuela, followed by another state of South America - Brazil, the third place is home to democracy - Greece, followed by Russia because of the fall of the ruble against world currencies. Closes the top 5 Ecuador.
Summing up, it should be said that the economy of the worldin recent years, increasingly entering a state of crisis. Sometimes the intention is intentional, due to, for example, sanctions, sometimes occur for natural reasons, which also hits the indicators very badly, and therefore is rated. Of course, calculations can be biased, first, because they are calculated in US dollars, and secondly, does not take into account the difference in domestic prices and the cost of material goods. In general, we can say that the rating of the economies of the world is nothing more than a GDP rating, which does not show the real state of affairs within each country, and this is its big disadvantage.
