Bart van Ark, chief economist of the Conference Board, said growth has finally revived since the global economic and financial crisis. GDP was predicted to grow at 2.8% a year ago, and is likely to end at about 3% this year and through next year.
Ark said while the growth path of markets will remain solid in the short term, potential for much faster growth is limited, and a slowdown is likely to set in later in the decade.
