Coursework Assessment – Introduction
In 2001 the world began talking about the Bric countries – Brazil, Russia, India and China – as potential powerhouses of the world economy. The term was coined by economist Jim O’Neill, who has now identified the “Mint” countries – Mexico, Indonesia, Nigeria and Turkey – as emerging economic giants. They are bound by a few key themes: young populations, useful geographical placement, and (Turkey excepted) by being commodity producers. The MINT countries are widely considered as the next emerging economic giants, offering a range of potential for exports in terms of goods and services across the world, including the United Kingdom.
