World Bank-Russia Economic Report 32: Policy Uncertainty Clouds Medium-Term Prospects
September 24, 2014--The Russian economy is near stagnation, with continued lowered domestic demand leading to growth of 0.8 percent in the first half of 2014, similar to 0.9 percent in 2013, the World Bank said today in its latest Russia Economic Report launched in Moscow. Economic activity was already hamstrung by lingering structural problems and a wait-and-see attitude on the part of both businesses and consumers in 2013.
An additional negative impact on the economy-besides slow structural reforms-came from increased geopolitical tensions and an uncertain policy environment. It is policy uncertainty about the economic course the country will take that is casting the longest shadow on Russia's medium-term prospects.

IMF Working paper-Demand Patterns in France, Germany, and Belgium: Can We Explain the Differences?
September 12, 2014--Summary: The need to revive Euro area growth highlights the importance of the evolution of domestic and external demand in the core. This paper puts recent demand patterns in France, Germany, and Belgium into historical perspective. We find that, first, dynamics for private consumption, non-residential business investment,and exports since 2008 is dominated by conventional determinants, with no discernible structural break as a result of the crisis.
Second, although country-specific factors matter in some cases, demand patterns in these countries are largely driven by common determinants. Third, developments in common fundamentals tend to dominate demand dynamics, coupled, in a few cases, with structurally different elasticities across countries. Fourth, short-term analysis suggests a role for confidence and uncertainty factors in explaining temporary deviations of these variables from long-term fundamentals.
