Spain is the fifth largest economy in Europe with a GDP of US$828-billion.
The country's construction sector expanded largely during a construction boom from 1997 to 2001 and is now close to 10 per cent of the GDP. Since 1999, more than 500,000 new homes have been built each year. Spain has one of the highest home ownership rates in the world, but spiraling housing costs threaten this sustained rate of expansion. However, a legacy of poorly constructed apartments from a housing crisis in the 1960s pushes the demand for quality housing. |

Marketing to Leading-Edge Baby Boomers
by Brent Green (Writers Advantage 2003)
By 2010, more than 30 per cent of Americans will be over the age of 50. This segment of the population represents $750-billion in spending power, and these post-war baby boomers will change the idea of aging just as they changed youth culture and dictated consumer preferences over the past thirty years. So says author Brent Green, who tells us in his new book, Marketing to Leading-Edge Baby Boomers, that this influential generation will not tolerate stereotyped notions about their changing lifestyles. His provocative and insightful book is well worth reading.
