Business Cycles
The economy goes through a series of stages as it expands and contracts, characterised by downward or upward
fluctuations of GDP.
Periods of growth result in business activity rising, where businesses innovate, produce new products, create jobs and
invest in further growth. At the peak of the expansion phase, businesses are using their full capacity, and soon
continued innovation and investments have lower impact.
Periods of slowdown give businesses the opportunity to reorganise their operations and rebuild for future growth.
Businesses cut down on products and capacity and follow a more focused approach in their day to day functioning. At
the trough of the slowdown phase, these renewed business models give rise to increased capacity and innovation
