Global The global economic outlook for 2024 presents a scenario of moderating inflation and steady Economy with a possibility of achieving a soft landing. Projected global growth rates stand at 3.2% for 2024 growth, signaling a path towards a soft landing. The risks to global growth are seen as balanced, and 20251, although these figures are below the historical average. The forecast reflects factors such as elevated central bank policy rates combating inflation, withdrawal of fiscal support amid high debt levels, and low productivity growth. in 2024 and further to 4.4% in 2025. This trend of decreasing inflation, along with consistent Inflation rates are expected to decrease globally, with headline inflation projected to fall to 5.8% growth, has diminished the chances of a severe economic downturn, with the risks to global growth now seen as generally balanced. Upside factors include the potential for further easing of spikes from geopolitical shocks, supply disruptions, or persistent inflationary pressures. Global financial conditions due to faster disinflation, while downside risks include commodity price policymakers face the challenge of managing inflation descent while adjusting monetary policies and focusing on fiscal consolidation to rebuild budgetary capacity.2

Forecasts regarding policy rates reflect adjustments, with expectations of initial rate cuts by the 3 Bank of England. These adjustments align with market expectations and contribute to a favorable US Federal Reserve in June and similar easing measures by the European Central Bank and the outlook for global trade dynamics and currency trends, favoring a depreciating trend for the US dollar.
