Canada
Even in January Canada’s economy had a bit of spring in its step, suggesting the 
first quarter may not be as bad as feared.
Gross domestic product expanded 0.5% in the month, snapping back from December’s 
loss, when a major ice storm in Ontario exacted a steep toll on the economy. And 
the economy is expected to gain further traction in the months ahead as U.S. 
growth strengthens and boosts demand for Canadian exports.
According to BMO Capital Markets chief economist, Douglas Porter “the underlying 
growth in the economy appears slightly better than expected.” Although a severe 
winter is widely expected to have weighed on growth in the first three months of 
2014, slowing from the 2.9% annualized rate in the fourth quarter of 2013, some 
economists are revising their projections higher after January’s GDP data…(The 
remaining text is not included in this sample.)

India
The Indian economy is expected to grow 5.5% in 2014-15 on the back of improved 
performance in industry and services and will inch up to 6% in 2015-16 as 
external demand improves due to the strength in advanced economies, the Asian 
Development Bank said recently. The 5.5% estimate is slightly lower than its 
previous forecast of 5.7% growth. 
The government moves to open up some of the structural bottlenecks that have 
impeded industry and investment is also likely to have an impact on overall 
growth, the ADB said in its latest outlook. However, it cautioned that economic 
recovery would be a long haul. 
"Economic recovery would have to be led by improved investment and consumption, 
but the prospects do not appear promising at this stage. Elevated inflation, a 
tight monetary stance, and a weak currency will continue to constrain spending. 
Further, fiscal austerity is likely to be an additional drag on growth," the ADB 
said.   (The remaining text is not included in this sample.)
EUROPE / AFRICA / MIDDLE EAST
United Kingdom
The British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) announced in mid-March that it expected 
UK GDP to reach pre-2007 levels by this summer, a quarter earlier than 
originally expected. Furthermore, the outlook for 2015 has also been bumped up, 
with GDP increasing from an expected 2.4% to 2.5%, and is predicted to remain 
stable – holding onto this rate throughout 2016.
The immediate impact of this optimism will, of course, be the long-awaited rise 
in interest rates, which has been at a record low of 0.5% for the past five 
years. The BCC has predicted that the rates are likely to rise in Q3 2015, but 
will only be nudged up to 0.75%, and will step up incrementally by 0.25% each 
quarter until it reaches 1.5% in H2 2016. However, it would appear that the 
BCC's outlook is conservative, as the wider consensus around the base rate is 
that it will rise to 1% in Q3 2014, and then up to 2-2.5% in the following 12 
months.
The question on many private equity practitioners' minds will be the impact of 
the rate rise on outstanding debt held by portfolio companies. According to Gary 
Edwards of Investec's growth and acquisition finance team, the levels of 
restructuring seen in 2013 (which accounted for more than 80% of debt 
transactions across Europe) are likely to continue throughout 2014 in 
anticipation of the increase: "Private equity will need to deal with debt 
structures before the [interest] rate increases."   (The remaining
