Key findings

Business services among the most attractive sectors in the economy

Business services is one of the most attractive sectors of the economy in many countries. Growth stability, high bargaining power over buyers and suppliers and strong profitability contribute to the attractiveness of the sector. A shift to the services economy in developed countries and growing demand for professional services is forecast to sustain attractiveness of the business services sector over the next five years.

Attractiveness of the energy sector improves

The energy sector has improved its attractiveness over the period 2016-2021. Rising prices of energy commodities helped to increase profitability and the bargaining power of the energy sector, thus contributing to its attractiveness. Higher energy prices are forecast to persist and further support the energy sector’s attractiveness, although weaker global economic growth and potential regulations on the energy sector are likely to limit some of the future growth.

Manufacturing industry is among the most attractive in emerging markets

Emerging countries see the manufacturing industry as being among the most attractive economic sectors. Growing consumer incomes and expanding demand for manufactured goods support industrialisation efforts and increase attractiveness of the manufacturing sector. In addition, availability of commodities and generally lower energy prices in emerging markets further support expansion of the manufacturing sector.
