Emerging economies, including India, will overtake the developed countries in growth by 2050, with popularity of India and China as investment destination rising while the attractiveness of Europe and North America slipping, says a study.
"The seven new global powers by 2050 will comprise the so-called BRIC economies (Brazil, Russia, India and China) together with Indonesia, Mexico and Turkey," says the Ernst and Young European Attractiveness Survey 2007.
These seven emerging countries would overtake the economies of the G7 countries — Britain, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, US — in terms of GDP but whether India can develop its infrastructure at pace with that of global investment remains to be seen, the survey added.
The developing economies will outdo the G7 if it manages to mend the loopholes regarding transparency, fairness and infrastructure development. India's popularity is rising as 26% respondents said the country is amongst their top three preferences in 2007 whereas the figure was just 11% in 2004.
The survey highlights that with intensifying competitive cost pressure; companies across the world would resort to offshore services and manufacturing to lower cost and higher growth economies such as China and India. One company in five intends to relocate all or part of its European activities outside the region and for this they look forward to the Asian countries.
"China attracts interest of 50% of respondents undergoing a relocation search, while India is considered by 30% of voters," the survey said.
Europe's attractiveness for foreign investors declined significantly in 2007, though it has managed to maintain its lead as the most attractive global investment region, the survey says. However, the survey cautions that the mature economic markets in Europe are losing hold on investors as emerging economies of Asia gain momentum. This change in foreign investor interest towards Asian countries is because of high skilled labour power cost effectiveness and good ground for research and development (R&D) activities.
Asia has shown a significant gain and narrowed the gap with Europe and in the list of preferred regions China has moved up to the second position this year, while India has attained fifth position in the league. Western Europe tops the chart with 55% respondents naming it as one of their most preferred business locations followed by China.
Should india wait till 2050....? please write you comments...!!!

Understanding Value and Growth Stock Investing is Smart Move
How is the best way to get started investing in individual stocks?
Maybe you already own some individual stocks, but don’t have any organized way to approach buying more or perhaps you’re just getting started.
If you are ready to start investing in individual stocks in an organized and thoughtful manner, you’ll want to develop your own system and strategy.
Growth or Value Stocks?
This article is about your first step, which is deciding if you want to be a “value” or “growth” investor.
There’s no rule that says you can’t be both, although it may be easier to pick one as your primary focus and most investors usually end up more in one camp than the other does.
One strategy is not necessarily better than the other is, although over time value investors have an edge. It is important to note that growth and value investing are not opposites, just different approaches to the same problem.
Overview
Here is an overview of each so you can begin deciding which strategy makes the most sense to you.
The basic characteristics of growth investing:
Companies exhibit higher than average growth rates in revenues and earnings
Companies are in expanding industries that are riding an economic and/or demographic cycle
Companies don’t pay dividends
High growth companies often beat earnings estimates
Holding period determined by continued growth of company
The basic characteristics of value investing:
Companies have higher than average earnings per share
Companies that pay high dividends
Companies in solid, but not necessarily glamorous industry
Companies are industry leaders
Holding period typically longer than growth stocks
These are not exhaustive lists, but they’ll get you started.
For those who are concerned about risk, and everyone should be, of the two strategies value investing is less risky than growth investing.
Not Risk Free
That doesn’t mean value investing is risk free, but value stocks tend to be less volatile than growth stocks.
If you lean towards growth investing, you will want to pay attention to current stock and economic news – not to chase hot stocks, but to see where growth in occurring in the market.
If you are a value investor, you’ll be paying more attention to the financials using a stock screen to help you find candidates.
Either value or growth is a good place to start, but don’t dismiss the other, there are good opportunities in both strategies.
