These claims were made before a group of businessmen at a conference this week organized by The Economist magazine, and Calderon said that he believes that Mexico will reach the lofty goal "if the right decisions are made."

Calderon's predictions would put Mexico in 5th place after China, the U.S., India and Brasil.

The current ranking has Mexico ranked as number 15; the current number 1 is the U.S., followed by Japan, Germany, China and the U.K.
