Global consumer spending - investment perspective !

The middle class in Asia will make up the majority of 2030 consumer spending, according to an OECD estimate. The break up of this spending in 2009 and what  it would look like in 2030  by regions on a purchasing power parity basis. This is based on the current assumptions and there could be some deviation to these projections, however the trend would pretty much be the same with Asia Pacific growing at a staggering pace. Multi national companies expanding globally especially outside the US and EU will grow significanly in the next decade and beyond.

Estimated spending region wise by 2030 vs spending in 2009.
