8、 of significant economic danger. The risks highlighted in our May outlook have begun to crystallize, dramatically so in the case of persistent inflation, which has surged to levels not seen in a generation in response to a combination of demand-side and supply-side factors. This in turn has triggere

Meanwhile, real wages and consumer confidence are in freefall, adding further headwinds to growth and raising the prospect of social unrest.Against this daunting backdrop,

10、leaders face a catalogue of challenging decisions and trade-offs. As policy-makers seek to rein in inflation they risk triggering recession and a spike in unemployment. Introducing fiscal support measures for struggling households risks adding to levels of public borrowing that are already high afte

Debt distress is at worrying levels among lower-income countries, increasing their exposure to additional shocks, such as climate-related natural disasters and placing many in a vicious cycle of debt servicing costs. The aftereffects of the pandemic era disr

This is dramatically illustrated by changes to global supply chains as businesses seek to recalibrate in response to numerous shocks to global political and economic systems. Domestically and globally, we are in uncharted waters in the months ahead, and the reper

A slight, further weakening of growth is expec

A key driver of this slowdown is the likely continuation of monetary tightening in the US, which we discuss in the next section.Elsewhere in the world, our survey points to a broadly positive outlook for full-ye

The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region looks set to perform particularly well, with around 71% of respondents expecting growthto be moderate or better, in line with the strong year enjoyed by the regions many energy exporters.
