Asia-Pacific Economic Outlook for 2021

Andrew Tilton, chief Asia-Pacific economist for Goldman Sachs Research, talks about his team’s economic outlook for Asia-Pacific in 2021, and why they’re forecasting above-consensus growth. “We’re optimistic about growth in Asia-Pacific next year,” Tilton says. “We think the region could grow more than 7% in 2021. We’re optimistic about the world also – we think the world can grow about 6% – but especially optimistic about Asia-Pacific.”
