The industry globally lost $50 billion (Rs2.32 trillion) in the past 10 years, with $11 billion in 2009 alone. Revenues declined by $80 billion last year, he said.

“These numbers are really shocking. We’ve had a terrible 10 years. It would take at least three years to recover the level of growth we have lost," he said in an interview on Sunday.
