World Economic Outlook
News: Recently, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has released its World Economic Outlook (WEO) Update, which has marginally improved the forecast for global growth in 2023.
Key Findings:
On India
India will be the world’s fastest growing economy in 2023 and 2024.
Growth in India is set to decline from 6.8 % in 2022 to 6.1 % in 2023 before picking up to 6.8% in 2024, with resilient domestic demand despite external headwinds.
On Global Growth
The global growth, which was estimated at 3.4% in 2022, is now projected to fall to 2.9% in 2023 before rising to 3.1% in 2024. The IMF effectively rules out a global recession.
Negative growth in global GDP (Gross Domestic Product) or global GDP per capita—which often happens when there is a global recession is not expected. Instead, it expects global growth to bottom out in 2023 before starting to gather speed in 2024.
On Inflation
Inflation is expected to have peaked in 2022 but the disinflation will be slow and take all of 2023 and 2024.
About 84% of countries are expected to have lower headline (consumer price index) inflation in 2023 than in 2022.
Global inflation is set to fall from 8.8 % in 2022 (annual average) to 6.6 % in 2023 and 4.3 % in 2024.
In 2023, advanced economies are expected to have an inflation of 4.6% while emerging economies will continue to face an inflation of 8.1%.
What are the reasons for slowing of price rise?
One, monetary tightening all across the world — higher interest rates drag down overall demand for goods and services and that, in turn, slows down inflation.
Two, in the wake of a faltering demand, prices of different commodities both fuel and non-fuel have come down from their recent highs.
