Australia’s Economy
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page paper discussing Australia’s economy. Australia’s real growth rate of 3.6 percent in 2002 could be the envy of all developed nations. Australia’s economy suffered the effects of the Asian currency crisis that began in 1997, and was plagued with reduced output and rising unemployment for several years. Those constraints seem to have abated in the current economic climate, however, as Australia continues to post pleasing economic results and impressive real growth. The paper discusses the contribution of agriculture, industry and services to GDP, along with examining the influence of geography on the economy. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Australian Financial Markets
[ send me this paper ]
A 15 page paper discussing Australia's current financial markets. The Australian government is coming under growing pressure to increase the competitiveness of the country's financial market. A number of problems have arisen because the government has little or no experience in the financial industry and because it is not prepared to invest large sums of money in this area. The Australian stock market has made a remarkable performance in the past few years, primarily due to a healthy economy, a two percent inflation rate and the promotion and application of numerous restructuring efforts by Australian corporations.
