PESTLE Analysis of Australia 2012, November 2012
Australia has shown a consistent positive growth during the last decade of 2001 to 2011, even at the time of recession. The country has huge potential in the sectors like mining, manufacturing, wholesale and retail trade finance and insurance etc. The global GDP is expected to grow with a 3.9% CAGR over the next five years, while the Australian economy is likely to grow to $1.93 trillion by 2017 at the current price with a CAGR of 4% over the next five years (2012-17).
Lucintel, a leading global management consulting and market research firm, performed a Political, Economic, Sociological, Technological, Legal, and Environmental (PESTLE) analysis of Australia, and presents its findings in “PESTLE Analysis of Australia 2012”.
Australia is characterized by a stable economy with increased FDI inflows and a strong domestic demand which have provided cushion to the economy even in the crisis period. Despite of the robust economic performance, Australia faces challenges related to income disparity which can hinder its economic growth in future. For export and import, Australia is excessively dependent on countries such as the China, Japan, US, UK and some European countries. Any decline in these economies can hinder its economic growth. Australia needs to diversify its export destination as well as its export portfolio as it excessively depends on the iron ore concentrates and mining products.
Lucintel research indicates that Australia is likely to face issues related to aging population by 2017 which will results in increasing dependency ratio. The government is likely to spend more on pensions and transfer payments for the population aged above 60 years by 2017. This will increase the country's fiscal deficit.
