Economist Jim O'Neill coined the acronym BRIC economies in reference to the potential might of Brazil, Russia, India and China as dominant economies of the twenty-first century. But in these radio broadcasts he explores his latest group: the MINTs
As we enter a fast-changing economic global community, some countries are experiencing loss of dominance, others are strengthening, and a few are on the fast-track to growth. In these 45 minute broadcasts on BBC Radio 4, Jim O'Neill explores the basis of four Emerging Economies (EEs) that may play a significant role in globalisation as the century unfolds: the MINTs, or Mexico, Indonesia, Nigeria and Turkey
