Continued Growth of GDP
Future GDP growth will determine the wealth of a country, as well as growth within a larger geographical region. The Middle East and Europe both have a significant concentration of high GDP countries. The gross world GDP growth reached an average of 3.1% in 2015 and is expected to grow even further in 2016. It remains to be seen whether wealth may see a redistribution to other areas around the world in the coming decades.
