Capgemini Global Trade Flow Index Reveals United States Regained First Place Ahead of China in Q4 2010

Capgemini Consulting, the global strategy and transformation consulting  brand of the Capgemini Group, has announced figures from the latest edition of its Global Trade Flow Index*. Its analysis shows continued growth in global trade flows in Q4 2010, with an increase of 2.5 percent, although at a slightly slower pace than the 4.67 percent trade growth recorded in Q3 2010, due to the threat of a sovereign debt crisis in the EU and inflation in developing economies.
