Benefits of economic growth

benefits-growth

Increased consumption. Firstly, higher GDP implies the economy is producing more goods and services and therefore consumers can enjoy more goods and services. If human welfare is linked to consumption then growth will benefit society. Higher levels of consumption will help to reduce any incidence of absolute poverty (when people can’t meet basic necessities of life.) This may not be so obvious for developed countries, like the UK and US, but for developing economies, economic growth and rising incomes play a big role in lifting people out of poverty.

Higher investment in public services. With higher GDP the government will be able to collect more taxes; this is because people as incomes rise and people spend more they will pay more income tax and VAT. This is beneficial because the government can use this increased revenues to reduce the level of government borrowing and/or spend more on public services and investment in the country infrastructure. This investment in public services can help improve the long-term performance of the economy. For example, better infrastructure enables a lower cost of trade. Therefore, growth can cause a virtuous cycle of higher investment leading to higher growth – which enables more investment.

Lower unemployment. Higher economic growth will also lead to an increase in demand for labour as firms will be producing more. Therefore unemployment will fall, this has various advantages such as lower government spending on benefits and less social problems. If the economy is in recession, then increasing the rate of economic growth will be an important step in reducing unemployment.
