Denmark is one of the most respected countries in the world and the world’s second-largest shipping operator and almost energy self-sufficient (oil and gas in the North Sea and Greenland, as well as various wind-power parks). Pharmaceuticals, wind turbines, and food products are examples of niche businesses with cyclically non-sensitive exports. Denmark has well-managed governmental finances with a significant current account surplus. The Danish economy is demonstrating resilience, with export-oriented industries less subject to business cycles and benefiting from rising domestic demand.
