Israel’s Economy Keeps Growing and Developing Despite Heading Towards Their 5th Election in Less Than 4 Years!

As Matthew A. Winkler, Editor-in-Chief Emeritus of Bloomberg News, writes, Israel is an economic powerhouse, despite the wrong perception and/or ignorance that surrounds its continued impressive economic achievements as a country.

By combining strong population growth, lower inflation rates, lower unemployment, the highest GDP growth within the 34 developed economies, Israel’s capital markets are headed to continue the current trajectory of growth and success, positioning Israel as an upcoming global player.

Since 2010 when the OECD recognized Israel as a developed country by inviting it to join the organization and when the global foreign indexes immediately removed Israel from the emerging countries to include it in the developed countries, we have been offering American investors a vehicle to access the mostly ignored Israeli capital markets.

Israel may be divided on many political issues, but ironically economics isn’t really one of them. There is a majority consensus to keep pushing for pro-market reform and restructuring. At IIA, we are steadfast supporters of these reforms and restructuring that have been part of Israel’s DNA for the past few decades, and these changes dictate our investing strategy.
