Deloitte Monday Briefing: Who's Growing, Who's Not

* Consensus or average GDP growth forecasts are valuable economic indicators. Based on forecasts from hundreds of economists these data show where the average economist thinks the world economy is going.

* Despite the continuing uncertainty about growth, economists expect the pace of global growth to edge higher, from 2.9% last year to 3.1% this year.

* But that growth continues to be unevenly distributed.

* In 2013 the world's ten fastest growing countries are likely to be emerging economies with China and India topping the global growth league. Emerging economies are expected to account for in excess of two thirds of world growth this year.

* By contrast economists expect all of ten of the world's weakest economies to be in Europe. The Greek, Portuguese, Spanish and Italian economies are forecast to contract sharply this year and these countries are at the bottom of the global growth league.
