Asia Pacific Macroeconomic Forecasts
Risk Adjusted Medium-Long Term Macroeconomic Forecasts
Country Acuity Advisors has partnered with Icon Economics to offer medium to long term macroeconomic forecasts to our valued customers. Our Country Risk and FX Reports combine our country expertise with macroeconomic and financial market capabilities to provide systematic, transparent, and unbiased long-term growth, inflation, and exchange rate forecasts for 23 Asia Pacific economies.
Systematic – Our forecast methodology is consistent across all countries in the region which allows apples-to-apples comparisons and avoids extrapolating trends or forecasting based on the whims of industry sentiment towards a particular country.
Transparent – Rather than hiding behind any ‘black box’ forecasting models which often face limitations and lack transparency, we provide a breakdown of the drivers of growth, inflation, and currencies so clients can see exactly where and why our forecasts differ from the consensus.
Unbiassed – Most importantly, our growth forecasts reflect our views and only our views, which allows us to be unshackled from the constraints often faced by larger organizations.
Our unique forecasting methodology is grounded in our understanding of free-market economic theory and the fundamental drivers of wealth creation, shaped by 30 years of real-world forecasting and risk analysis experience across Asia.
Use our forecasters to plan for the future and increase your organization's resilience to change and uncertainty. Our analysis and forecasts can be used to develop your own revenue growth estimates, plan for economic and political risks and opportunities, and gain an overall better understanding of the long-term outlook for Asia’s economic and political landscape.

Our forecasting philosophy, approach and Risk Adjustment Process
In an environment where we are inundated with information and data, we cut through the day to day clutter and the news cycle and focus on what's most important to medium-to-long term macroeconomic growth and wealth creation. Using a rules based systemic approach we focus on getting the long term drivers and major economic turning points right vs the monthly and quarterly gyrations of economic activity and financial markets. To do this, we look at fundamentals, which we then further break down to six broad categories to formulate our macroeconomic potential for any given economy. These categories include Economic potential, Financial Stability, Economic Freedom, Business Environment, Political Stability and Human Capital.
At the same time, macroeconomic forecasting is subject to hidden risks which are difficult to incorporate into core views. With this in mind, we have introduced Risk-Adjustments to our real GDP growth forecasts which take into account ‘hidden’ economic and/or political risk factors outside our baseline assumptions. Adjustments to our baseline forecasts reflect the exposure of the economy to exogenous shocks and the potential for positive or negative economic/political reforms.

Who are you and what are your backgrounds?
These macroforecasts are a joint collaboration between Country Acuity Advisors and Icon Economics, two Singapore based macro and political risk advisory and forecasting firms.
There are many choices out there? Why this forecasts vs others?
Yes, choice is good so is competition. We are a new and niche player in the forecasting space. We don't have large bureucracies or PR managers who ask us to tone down our views. We can afford to put our neck out and make bold calls where others maybe more hesitant to do so.
How can a small firm cover so many economies?
We focused on the medium to long term. Not the day to day and monthly data points and news cycle. And here's a scret, medium to long term growth does not change because of monthly PMI figures or because a leader tweets or not. Of course the short term has some impact on the medium term, but that is a shorter term impact for the most part.
