The economic recovery of global outlook will provide a more challenging economic environment for the GCC and presents considerable growth opportunities. In addition, while GCC trade is increasingly oriented towards emerging markets and particularly Asia, lower growth in the developed economies will generate headwinds through weaker trade and tourism activity within GCC and will also dent growth prospects in these emerging markets. Economic diversification in the GCC countries continues as signaled by the steady decline in the share of the hydrocarbon sector's contribution to real GDP from 41 per cent in 2000 to 33 per cent now. However, GCC countries have not done as well in diversifying their domestic revenue base as the oil and gas sector's contribution to budget receipts remained high at 84 per cent on average in the last three years. As a result of the continued large surpluses, the IIF expects to see gross financial assets rise to $2.8 trillion by year-end. With relatively little external debt. the region's net foreign assets would rise to $2.3 trillion (137 per cent of GDP) by end-2014. Private sector growth is projected to rise further to 6.2 per cent in 2014 from 5.9 per cent in 2013, supported by buoyant domestic demand, and both private consumption and investment expenditures. Government sector growth is projected to slow to 3.5 per cent in 2014 from 5 per cent in 2013 as authorities across the GCC move to begin to rein in expenditure growth, which had been resurgent for nearly a decade.
