The original white paper, published in December 2009, focused on the economic outlook for the 2010-12 period. It suggested that we may experience a ‘New Normal’ as the global economy recovered, rather than a return to the previous boom period.
It aimed to present some ideas on how the chemical industry might best navigate the next few years, and where we are headed in terms of economic growth and chemical demand.
This update (published June 2010) looks at the current state of the global economy, six months on, and then covers the outlook for key chemical markets such as construction/housing and autos, as well as the latest views expressed by chemical companies themselves on the outlook.
