doing a case study on malaysia, would it be considered a developing, developed or emerging economy.
Hey Chloe,
You should be aware that there is no set criteria of what constitutes an emerging, developed and developing economy; there are basic indicators that are very subjective, however I do think that it is an emerging economy. Especially since the IMF (most reputable source I could find) classifies it in many of it's publishings as an "emerging market that trades with advanced economies"
Although, Malaysia's GDP growth is not as high as some of the other emerging economies, the rest of the indicators point towards an emerging economy rather than an advanced or developing economy
Hope this helps
