AUSTRALIA - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
The Australian economy has experienced continuous growth and
features low unemployment, contained inflation, very low public debt, and a
strong and stable financial system. By 2012, Australia had experienced more
than 20 years of continued economic growth, averaging 3.5% a year. Demand for
resources and energy from Asia and especially China has grown rapidly, creating
a channel for resources investments and growth in commodity exports. The high
Australian dollar has hurt the manufacturing sector, while the services sector
is the largest part of the Australian economy, accounting for about 70% of GDP
and 75% of jobs. Australia was comparatively unaffected by the global financial
crisis as the banking system has remained strong and inflation is under control.
Australia has benefited from a dramatic surge in its terms of trade in recent
years, stemming from rising global commodity prices. Australia is a significant
exporter of natural resources, energy, and food. Australia''s abundant and
diverse natural resources attract high levels of foreign investment and include
extensive reserves of coal, iron, copper, gold, natural gas, uranium, and
renewable energy sources. A series of major investments, such as the US$40
billion Gorgon Liquid Natural Gas project, will significantly expand the
resources sector. Australia is an open market with minimal restrictions on
imports of goods and services. The process of opening up has increased
productivity, stimulated growth, and made the economy more flexible and
dynamic. Australia plays an active role in the World Trade Organization, APEC,
the G20, and other trade forums. Australia has bilateral free trade agreements
(FTAs) with Chile, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore, Thailand, and the US, has
a regional FTA with ASEAN and New Zealand, is negotiating agreements with
China, India, Indonesia, Japan, and the Republic of Korea, as well as with its
Pacific neighbors and the Gulf Cooperation Council countries, and is also
working on the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement with Brunei Darussalam,
Canada, Chile, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, the US, and
Vietnam.
