Watch again: IMF and World Bank release report on state of the global economy

Watch again as the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank Group (WBG) release the Global Financial Stability Report on Tuesday, 11 April. It comes after the release of the World Economic Outlook at the 2023 Spring Meetings. IMF chief economist Pierre-Olivier Gourinchas presented the financial agency’s latest global growth projections and key policy recommendations in Washington DC. The announcement comes amid concerns over high inflation rates and slow global growth. The IMF has predicted that global growth will be “around 3 per cent” per year for the next five years, according to IMF managing director Kristalina Georgieva.
