Australia's economy boom

With the UK being one of the top three countries worldwide for emigration to Australia, accounting for more than 13.7% of all that relocate there, it comes as no surprise to hear that the economy is booming. And with the country now overtaking Spain to become the 12^th largest economy in the world, it will no doubt mean that many more Brits will head to the country for a better life.

Since 2007, Australia’s economy has overtaken the economies of South Korea, Mexico and Spain, suggesting that the Global recession hasn’t hit the country as hard as anywhere else. Given the country’s relative population size, this seems even more of an impressive achievement, but the recent mining boom has no doubt contributed to the growth.

Paul Arthur, director of migration advisors The Emigration Group said, “The economies of both Australia and New Zealand are booming – there are literally thousands of vacancies for Brits who may be struggling to find work here or are worried about their future in the UK.”

With solid growth, low unemployment figures, steady inflation and a high investment in resources, Australia’s prospects look fantastic. Add to that year-round sunshine, a fantastic education system and friendly locals and you’ve got the ideal country to emigrate to.
