Capital Inflows
In: Emerging Markets Finance Global Economy Interactive Maps Source: WSJ
15 Sep 2011Cheap money and slow growth in the advanced countries has led to large capital flows to emerging market countries, as this interactive tool from the WSJ shows. If you mouse over each country you can view countries’ policy responses. I really like these map/graph combo designs – the two go very well together.
Projections of when China’s GDP will be bigger than the USA’s, based on several different growth rates. There’s also an interactive version.
Foreign Exchange Reserves
In: Emerging Markets Global Economy Interactive Maps Source: FT
2 Feb 2011The FT created an interactive bar chart of the IMF’s COFER data on foreign currency holdings. Watching the growth since 2006 is particularly stunning. Design wise, the dynamic resorting of the countries is an interesting variation.
Posted at the same time was a map of China’s imports with details clickable by country. This is all part of the FT’s in depth “China Shapes the World” feature.
Note: some Financial Times features require a subscription.
