Global trade was in depression and the average annual trade growth was reduced by 1.14%. The import and export trade of the United States and China suffered more serious affected by the crisis. Due to the impact of the European Sovereign debt crisis, the average annual growth of Chinas economy decreased 0.37 percentage points, which is more serious than the United States and other BRIC countries. The exports of raw materials processing and machinery and electronics manufacturing industries of China were affected more serious. The impacts of the European Sovereign Debt Crisis on global economic growth will continue in the next few years (2012-2015). The gap of the prospects for global economic growth between in pessimistic and optimistic scenarios is larger, and boosting the global economy still needs stronger economic stimulus policies to carry out.
