Introduction
Denmark's economy was hit hard by the fall in international trade in 200809. This, coupled with the impact of the economic crisis on the Danish property market, resulted in the largest decline in GDP (which dropped by -4.7% in 2009 alone) in almost four decades. The economy recovered in 2010, with GDP growing at a rate of 2.2%; however, this was largely due to the turning of the inventory cycle.
