Australia best-placed to beat recession
According to 7,500 business people from more than 24 nations, Australia is surviving the economic crisis better than any other country, the Servcorp International Business Confidence Survey found.
Australia placed first in the survey, ahead of China, with India and Singapore in equal third place. New Zealand also fared well, ranked ninth.
The survey conducted in April was aimed at gauging business sentiment and what impact the economic downturn has had on businesses globally.
Over 71 per cent of Australian businesspeople believe we are the lucky country, and it's interesting to see that the rest of the world agrees.
