IMF say global growth on track to reach 3% in 2026, but risks remain high
SPY•Debt, inflation and energy risks remain elevated
Julie Kozack, spokesperson for the International Monetary Fund, said oil and gas prices remained high and the energy shock from the war was not over. Global debt pressures were also mounting and the disinflation process over the 2022 cost of living crisis had stalled, she told reporters.
Kozack told a regular IMF briefing that global inflation expectations had risen but remain well-anchored over the longer run.
