OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS

According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the outlook continues to be uncertain in view of the financial sector turmoil, high inflation, ongoing effects of Russias invasion of Ukraine, and three years of COVID which have now become sort of perennial issues with little hope about their settling down to the normal levels in any conceivable short term.

The IMF has forecasted the growth rate to fall from 3.4 percent in 2022 to 2.8 percent in 2023. The growth rate for advanced economies is expected to take a steeper dive from 2.7 percent in 2022 to 1.3 percent in the year 2023. Taking a more plausible view, the IMF projects that if the financial sector stress intensifies further, the global growth rate may even fall to about 2.5 percent with advanced economy growth falling below 1 percent in the year 2023.
