Household and corporate balance sheets have continued to improve gradually and corporate default levels have declined. Companies in mature markets have cut costs, enhancing their ability to cope with slower growth and other potential difficulties. Corporations-particularly in the United States-have made good progress in their financial consolidation efforts and are in a better financial position to increase investment spending.
