Analyze the macro environment determining the economic situation of the destination. They focus their analysis on one factor affecting the general economy (and subsequently tourism) in the selected destination. The analysis must be illustrated by 2 figures / tables taken from published sources, to be inserted “in text”. One of the 2 illustrations must be extracted from recognized organizations’ publications like OECD, IMF, etc.; the other can be taken from Statista and other commercial sources. The eligible macroeconomic factors for this task are: Unemployment, Inflation, Consumer price index, Income, Interest rates, Currency / exchange rates, Balance of payments, National debt. Students must adopt a macroeconomic viewpoint for this analysis. Hospitality is a sector of economy and cannot be considered as a macroeconomic factor.
