Top 10 Richest Countries to Escape a Financial Meltdown
Baku, October 10 (AZERTAC). The top 10 richest countries in the world to escape the financial crisis.
1. Qatar - the richest country in the world. A GDP per capita of $91 379, main industries, as with most Arabic countries, crude oil production & refining & the location for the 2022 FIFA World Cup, it`s no surprise it tops the chart. When the financial markets come crashing down, this is a good place to be.
2. Luxembourg - one of the tiniest countries in Europe & with nothing special to its name, you`d wonder how it made it so high up here. However, less is more & apparently the same goes with countries. With a GDP of $89 562 per capita, it soars far above 3rd place UAE. With its main industries being banking, financial services, iron & steel, it`s well placed to create huge revenue & supply you with a great job to survive the meltdown.
3. United Arab Emirates - this shouldn`t be a surprise to anyone. If you can handle the searing heat, a passionate group of Arsenal supporters, all coupled with a GDP of $57 744 per capita, this is the place for you. When a rich sheik who knows his finances running the place, it`s a good bet that this is where you want to be.
4. Norway - European countries completely dominating this list. Admittedly, that`s a little ironic seeing as most of them are the ones causing the problems, but you can be sure Norway isn`t one of the antagonists. With a GDP of $56 920 per capita & industries in petroleum, natural gas & goods processing, you can expect it to carry on this trend in the long run. With beautiful scenery to boast, it`s not a bad place to run away from a financial meltdown.
5. Singapore- probably a shocker of a country to be included in this list, I know. But you can`t argue with a country that has a GDP of $56 797 per capita. With its main industries being electronics, chemicals & financial services, it`s no surprise that it`s high up. Another positive, it isn`t in Europe.
