45、ore than three years after the coronavirus touched off the deepest global recession since World War II,the world economy remains hobbledfar short of the strength that will be necessary to make substantial progress on global ambitions to eliminate extreme poverty,counter climate change,and replenish
46、human capital.Emerging market and developing economies(EMDEs)today are struggling just to copedeprived of the wherewithal to create jobs and deliver essential services to their most vulnerable citizens.The optimism that arose with the end of Chinas COVID-19 shutdown earlier this year proved to be fl
47、eeting.In EMDEs other than China,a pronounced slump is underway:growth is set to slow to 2.9 percent in 2023 from 4.1 percent in 2022.Besieged by high inflation,tight global financial markets,and record debt levels,many countries are simply growing poorer.By the end of 2024,per-capita income growth
48、in about a third of EMDEs will be lower than it was on the eve of the pandemic.In low-income countriesespecially the poorestthe damage is even larger:in about one-third of these countries,per capita incomes in 2024 will remain below 2019 levels by an average of 6 percent.Yet,as the World Bank Groups
49、 latest Global Economic Prospects report makes clear,new hazards are threatening to make matters worse.Despite the steepest global interest-rate hiking cycle in four decades,inflation remains high;even by end-2024,it will remain above the target range of most inflation-targeting central banks.Policy
50、makers in most economies will need to be exceptionally agile to cope with the risks that come with such rate hikes.Today,high interest rates arent merely crimping growth in EMDEs;they are also dampening investment and intensifying the risk of financial crises.These challenges would intensify in the
51、event of more widespread banking-sector strains in advanced economies.Low-income countries are especially vulnerable.Relative to the average EMDE,these countries spend only the tiniest fraction of government revenues on their most vulnerable citizensbarely 3 percent of GDP.Today,interest payments ar
52、e taking an ever-bigger bite out of these resourcesmore than one-fifth of revenues in many countriesleaving them with little fiscal space to cope with the next shock or make the investments necessary to revive growth.In addition,all the major drivers of global growthincluding productivity,trade,labo
53、r force and investment growthare expected to weaken over the remainder of this decade.Potential growththe maximum growth the global economy can sustain over the longer term without igniting inflationis expected to fall to a three-decade low over the remainder of the 2020s.These problems must be tack
54、led promptly if the world is to establish the economic footing necessary for even a semblance of success on global development goals.To curb climate change,stave off pandemics,and rebuild after conflict,developing countries need substantial resources.The necessary financing ramp-up to generate these
55、 resources depends both on faster growth and a more dynamic private sector.The World Banks latest projections indicate that the world economy will remain frailand at risk of a deeper downturnthis year and in 2024.Our baseline scenario calls for global growth to slow from 3.1 percent in 2022 to 2.1 p
56、ercent in 2023,before inching up to 2.4 percent in 2024.Even this tepid growth assumes that stress in the banking sector of advanced economies does not spill over to EMDEs.The lessons of economic history are forbidding.Rapid interest-rate increases of the kind that have been underway in the United S
57、tates over the past year are correlated with a higher likelihood of Foreword xvi financial crises in EMDEs.And if the current banking stress in advanced economies metas-tasizes into widespread financial turmoil affecting EMDEs,the worst-case scenario would have arrived:the global economy would exper
58、ience a deep downturn next year.This report offers a roadmap for policymakersnot only for avoiding the worst outcomes but also on how to put the global economy back on track.Five steps can make the difference:1.Mitigating financial contagion:Central banksespecially those in advanced econ-omiescan cu
59、rb the risk of disruptive spillovers to global financial markets by communicating their intentions as early and clearly as possible and calibrating their strategies so as to avoid abrupt changes in the policy outlook.2.Reducing domestic vulnerabilities:EMDE monetary authorities may need to tighten t
60、heir own policies in order to moderate capital outflows,currency depreciation,and resultant increases in inflation.Prudential standards and capital and liquidity buffers at EMDE banks and other financial institutions can be shored up to reduce the risk of financial contagion from banks in advanced e
61、conomies.In addition,EMDEs need to rebuild currency reserve buffers to mitigate the impact of volatile capital flows.3.Restoring fiscal sustainability.Among EMDEs,tax collection and administration must be improved to shore up revenues.Revenues in low-income countries have long been well below EMDE a
62、veragesand heavily depend-ent on grants from donors.But since 2015,grant financing has been declining as a share of their GDP.These countries will need to prioritize domestic resource mobilization,spending efficiency,and better debt management.4.Reinvigorating long-term growth.The slow-down in poten
63、tial growth can be reversed with steps to accelerate productivity-enhancing investment,strengthen health systems,improve student learning,and increase the participation of women and older workers in the labor force.Policies that promote trade and private capital mobili-zationparticularly for investm
64、ents in digital technology and climate-related projectswill help a great deal.5.Alleviating debt distress and strengthening the global financial safety net.This means ensuring that international financial institu-tions are adequately funded and focused on rapid support for EMDEs in distress.It also
65、requires new mechanisms to speedily and sensibly restructure the public debt of countries in debt distress.In the wake of bank failures in advanced economies,a renewed focus on global financial regulatory reform is also necessary.The global economy is in rough shapeand the extraordinary series of se
66、vere economic shocks and serious policy misjudgments are both to blame.Yet years before COVID-19 arrived,governments had already been turning their backs on free and fair trade.And long before the outbreak of the pandemic,governments across the world had developed an appetite for huge budget deficit
67、s.They turned a blind eye to the dangers of rising debt-to-GDP ratios.If a lost decade is to be avoided,these failures must be correctednow,not later.Indermit Gill Senior Vice President and Chief Economist World Bank Group xvii Executive Summary The global economy remains in a precarious state amid
68、the protracted effects of the overlapping negative shocks of the pandemic,the Russian Federations invasion of Ukraine,and the sharp tightening of monetary policy to contain high inflation.Global growth is projected to slow significantly in the second half of this year,with weakness continuing in 202
69、4.Inflation pressures persist,and tight monetary policy is expected to weigh substantially on activity.Recent banking sector stress in advanced economies will also likely dampen activity through more restrictive credit conditions.The possibility of more widespread bank turmoil and tighter monetary p
70、olicy could result in even weaker global growth.Rising borrowing costs in advanced economies could lead to financial dislocations in the more vulnerable emerging market and developing economies(EMDEs).In low-income countries,in particular,fiscal positions are increasingly precarious.Comprehensive po
71、licy action is needed at the global and national levels to foster macroeconomic and financial stability.Among many EMDEs,and especially in low-income countries,bolstering fiscal sustainability will require generating higher revenues,making spending more efficient,and improving debt management practi
72、ces.Continued international cooperation is also necessary to tackle climate change,support populations affected by crises and hunger,and provide debt relief where needed.In the longer term,reversing a projected decline in EMDE potential growth will require reforms to bolster physical and human capit
73、al and labor-supply growth.Global Outlook.After growing 3.1 percent last year,the global economy is set to slow substan-tially in 2023,to 2.1 percent,amid continued monetary policy tightening to rein in high inflation,before a tepid recovery in 2024,to 2.4 percent.Tight global financial conditions a
74、nd subdued external demand are expected to weigh on growth across emerging market and develop-ing economies(EMDEs).Projections for many countries have been revised down over the forecast horizon,with upgrades primarily due to stronger-than-expected data at the beginning of 2023 more than offset by d
75、owngrades thereafter.Inflation has been persistent but is projected to decline gradually as demand weakens and com-modity prices moderate,provided longer-term inflation expectations remain anchored.Global growth could be weaker than anticipated in the event of more widespread banking sector stress,o
76、r if more persistent inflation pressures prompt tighter-than-expected monetary policy.Weak growth prospects and heightened risks in the near term compound a long-term slowdown in potential growth,which has been exacerbated by the overlapping shocks of the pandemic,the Russian Federations invasion of
77、 Ukraine,and the sharp tightening of global financial conditions.This difficult context highlights a multitude of policy challenges.Recent bank failures call for a renewed focus on global financial regulatory reform.Global cooperation is also necessary to accelerate the clean energy transition,mitig
78、ate climate change,and provide debt relief for the rising number of countries experiencing debt distress.At the national level,it is imperative to implement credible policies to contain infla-tion and ensure macroeconomic and financial stability,as well as undertake reforms to set the foundations fo
79、r a robust,sustainable,and inclu-sive development path.Regional Prospects.Growth is projected to diverge across EMDE regions this year and next.It is expected to pick up in 2023 in East Asia and Pacific(EAP)and Europe and Central Asia(ECA),as Chinas reopening spurs a recovery and as growth prospects
80、 in several large economies improve.In contrast,growth is forecast to moderate in all other regions,particularly in Latin America and the Caribbean(LAC)and the Middle East and North Africa(MNA).Head-winds from weak external demand,tight global financial conditions,and high inflation will drag on act
81、ivity this year,especially in LAC,South Asia(SAR),and Sub-Saharan Africa(SSA).The lingering impact of Russias invasion of Ukraine will continue to weigh on growth across regions,xviii particularly in ECA.Next year,growth is project-ed to moderate in EAP and SAR but to pick up elsewhere as domestic h
82、eadwinds ease and external demand strengthens.Downside risks to the outlook for all regions include possible further global financial stress and more persistent domestic inflation than projected in the baseline.Geopolitical tensions,conflict and social unrest,and natural disasters stemming from clim
83、ate change also present downside risks,to varying degrees.The materialization of such risks could further weaken potential growth,leading to a prolonged period of slower growth in all EMDE regions.Financial Spillovers of Rising U.S.Interest Rates.The rapid rise in interest rates in the United States
84、 poses a significant challenge to EMDEs.As the Federal Reserve has pivoted toward a more hawkish stance to rein in inflation,a substantial part of the sharp increases in U.S.interest rates since early 2022 has been driven by shocks that capture changes in perceptions of the Feds reaction function.Th
85、ese reaction shocks are associated with especially adverse financial market effects in EMDEs,including a higher likelihood of experiencing a financial crisis.Their effects also appear to be more pronounced in EMDEs with greater economic vulnerabilities.These findings suggest that major central banks
86、 can alleviate adverse spillovers through proper communication that clarifies their reaction functions.They also highlight that EMDEs need to adjust macro-economic and financial policies to mitigate the negative impact of rising global and U.S.interest rates.Fiscal Policy Challenges in Low-Income Co
87、un-tries.The room for fiscal policy to maneuver has narrowed in low-income countries(LICs)over the past decade:LIC debt has grown rapidly as sizable and widening deficits offset the debt-reducing effects of growth.Fiscal deficits have reflected growing spending pressures,including on debt service,am
88、id persistent revenue weak-ness,especially for grants and income tax revenues.As a result,14 out of the 28 LICs were assessed as being in debt distress or at a high risk of debt distress as of end-February 2023.Creat-ing room for fiscal policy requires generating higher revenues,making spending more
89、 efficient,and improving debt management practices.These measures need to be embedded in improvements to domestic institutional frameworks and sup-ported by well-coordinated global policies both to improve fiscal policy management and to address debt challenges.xix Abbreviations AE CA CE CPI EAP ECA

99、bal financial conditions.This difficult context highlights a multitude of policy challenges.Recent bank failures call for a renewed focus on global financial regulatory reform.Global cooperation is also necessary to accelerate the clean energy transition,mitigate climate change,and provide debt reli

101、lopment path.Summary The global economy remains in a precarious state amid the protracted effects of the overlapping negative shocks of the pandemic,the Russian Federations invasion of Ukraine,and the sharp tightening of monetary policy to contain high inflation.The resilience that global economic a
102、ctivity exhibited earlier this year is expected to fade.Growth in several major economies was stronger than envisaged at the beginning of the year,with faster-than-expected economic reopen-ing in China and resilient consumption in the United States.Nonetheless,for 2023 as a whole,global activity is
103、projected to slow,with a pro-nounced deceleration in advanced economies and a sizable pickup in China(figure 1.1.A).Inflation pressures persist,and the drag on growth from the ongoing monetary tightening to restore price stability is expected to peak in 2023 in many major economies.Recent banking se
104、ctor stress will further tighten credit conditions.This will result in a substantial growth deceleration in the second half of this year.This slowdown will compound a period of already-subdued growthover the first half of the 2020s(2020-2024),growth in EMDEs is expected to average just 3.4 percent,o
105、ne of the weakest half-decades of the past 30 years(figure 1.1.B).This slowdown reflects both cyclical dynamics and the current trend of declining global potential output growth(figure 1.1.C).Global financial conditions have tightened as a result of policy rate hikes and,to a lesser extent,recent bo
106、uts of financial instability.Many banks experienced substantial unrealized losses due to the sharp rise in policy interest rates.Concerns about the viability of balance sheets of some banks led to depositor flight and market volatility in the United States and Europe earlier in the year,which were s
107、temmed by a swift and extensive policy response.Financial markets remain highly sensitive to evolving expectations about the future path of interest rates of major central banks.Spillovers from banking turmoil in advanced economies to EMDEs have so far been limited.However,countries with more pronou

126、ng countries have so far not undergone a major shift and appear to remain anchored.Energy prices have eased considerably since their peak in 2022 on account of weaker global growth prospects and a warmer-than-expected Northern winter,which reduced natural gas and electricity consumption.Metal prices
127、 increased in early 2023,reflecting signs of a stronger-than-anticipated recovery in China,but subsequently retraced those gains.Agricultural prices have been easing on the back of good production prospects for most crops.In all,global growth is forecast to slow from 3.1 percent in 2022 to 2.1 perce
128、nt in 2023,before edging up to 2.4 percent in 2024.Relative to the January projections,this is 0.4 percentage point stronger in 2023 and 0.3 percentage point weaker in 2024.Greater-than-expected resilience of major economies at the end of 2022 and early in 2023 led to the overall upgrade to growth i
129、n 2023.However,the drag on activity from tighter mone-tary policy is increasingly apparent,particularly in more interest-rate-sensitive activities such as business and residential investment,including construction.Growth over the rest of 2023 is set to slow substantially as it is weighed down by the
130、 lagged and ongoing effects of monetary tightening,and more restrictive credit conditions.These factors are envisaged to continue to affect activity heading into next year,leaving global growth below previous projections.Notwithstanding a continued recovery in tourism,global trade growth is likewise
131、 expected to slow in view of the ongoing rotation of consumption toward services,which tend to be less trade-intensive.Fiscal policy is expected to have little net impact on global growth over the forecast horizon,with modest tightening in EMDEs generally offsetting support in advanced economies.Gro

142、UNE 2023 6 Another risk to the forecast pertains to the possi-bility of higher-than-expected global inflation.This would result in additional monetary policy tightening,which could trigger financial stress.This would be particularly important in the case of the United States,given the scale of inter
143、na-tional spillovers from hawkish policy reaction by the Federal Reserve to rein in inflationsuch spillovers could include a substantial further rise in borrowing costs in EMDEs,especially in those with underlying vulnerabilities(figure 1.2.B).In the longer term,the decades-long slowdown of the fund
144、amental drivers of potential growthlabor supply,capital accumulation,and total factor productivitymay be exacerbated by trade fragmentation and climate-related natural disasters.Debt distress in various EMDEs,including low-income countries(LICs),highlights the need for globally coordinated debt reli
145、ef that overcomes the challenges posed by the increasing diversity of lenders(figure 1.2.C).Sustained international cooperation is needed to accelerate the clean energy transition,help countries improve both energy security and affordability,and incentivize the investments needed to pursue a path to
146、ward resilient,low-carbon growth(figure 1.2.D).The global community also has a vital role to play in mitigating humanitarian crises stemming from food shortages and conflict.At the national level,central banks in some EMDEs face persistent inflation and heightened risks due to the impact of their po
147、licies on fiscal positions and the financial sector.The increase in central bank credibility in many EMDEs in recent decades is an important policy accomplishment.Any erosion of credibility at this critical juncture would make the job of inflation control much more difficult and could trigger destab
148、ilizing capital outflows.Policy makers can also reduce financial market volatility by maintaining ade-quate foreign reserve buffers,promoting rigorous financial supervision,and strengthening bank resolution frameworks.Proper monitoring of financial system exposure to an increase in defaults and othe
149、r dislocations can ensure that prompt corrective action can be taken,as needed.Tighter financing conditions,slowing growth,and elevated debt levels create significant fiscal chal-tightening,less favorable credit conditions,softening labor markets,and still-high energy prices.In EMDEs,aggregate growt
150、h is projected to edge up to 4 percent in 2023,almost entirely due to a rebound in China following the removal of strict pandemic-related mobility restrictions.Excluding China,growth in EMDEs is set to slow substantially to 2.9 percent this year.This projection is predicated on the assumption of a p
151、rotracted period of tight global monetary policy,fiscal consolidation in most EMDEs,and weak external demand.The slowdown is expected to be even more severe for EMDEs with elevated fiscal vulnerabilities and external financing needs.Persistent weak growth means that,excluding China,EMDEs are expecte
152、d to continue making next to no progress at closing the differential in per capita incomes relative to advanced economies(figure 1.1.F).By 2024,economic activity in EMDEs will still be about 5 percent below levels projected on the eve of the pandemic.Global inflation is projected to gradually edge d
153、own as growth decelerates,labor demand in many economies softens,and commodity prices remain stable.The slow pace of improvement means that core inflation is expected to remain above central bank targets in many countries throughout 2024.Risks to the outlook remain tilted to the down-side.Recent adv
154、anced-economy bank turmoil highlights the possibility of more disorderly failures,which could lead to systemic banking crises and protracted economic downturns,with spillovers to sovereigns and across borders.These failures could be triggered by mounting concerns about balance sheet quality,continue
155、d losses in the heavily leveraged commercial real estate sector,or by the ongoing decline in house prices in many countries.In a scenario where banking stress results in a severe credit crunch and broader financial stress in advanced economies,global growth in 2024 would only be 1.3 percent,about ha
156、lf the pace in the baseline forecast(figure 1.2.A).In another scenario where financial stress propagates globally to a far greater degree,the world economy would fall into recession in 2024,as global growth of only 0.3 percent would imply a contraction in global per capita GDP.CHAPTER 1 GLOBAL ECONO

158、 appropriately targeted to vulnerable groups.Measures to im-prove fiscal space without unduly damaging activity need to be prioritized.Across many EMDEs,especially LICs,strengthened institutions and improvements to domestic governance are needed to boost the efficiency of spending and taxation.Many
159、of the current challenges reflect underlying longer-run trends.Potential growth in EMDEs has been on a decades-long declining path because of slowing growth rates of labor force,investment,and productivity.The slowdown in these funda-mental factors has been exacerbated by the over-lapping shocks of
160、the pandemic,Russias invasion of Ukraine,and the sharp tightening of global monetary policy in response to high inflation.Reversing the decline in potential growth will require decisive structural reforms(figure 1.2.F).These include measures to improve investment conditions,develop human capital and
161、 infrastruc-ture,increase participation in the formal labor force,foster productivity growth in services,and promote international trade.In particular,foster-ing investment in green energy and climate resilience can ensure that growth is both robust and sustainable.Global context Global trade is bei

176、(UNWTO 2023).Pressures on global supply chains have abated as goods demand has weakened and global shipping conditions have improved(figure 1.3.A).The global supply chain pressures index and suppliers delivery times reached their lowest levels in almost four years in the first half of 2023 and are e
177、x-pected to remain low.During the pandemic,trade growth was supported by a shift in the composition of demand toward tradable goods and away from services,which are less trade-intensive.The gradual rotation of demand back to its pre-pandemic composition is now slowing trade growthas is the fact that
178、 the recovery in China is expected to be predominantly driven by services,which will limit positive spillovers to its trading partners through demand for goods and commodities.The growing number of restrictive trade measures reflects a rising degree of geopolitical tensions and attempts by some majo
179、r economies to follow more inward-looking policies(figure 1.3.B).In the longer term,this will likely reshape global supply chains and increase trade costs(EBRD 2023;Ges and Bekkers 2022).Together,these factors are expected to further reduce the responsiveness of global trade to changes in outputresp
180、onsiveness that had already declined in the 2010s relative to previous decades(figure 1.3.C;Kose and Ohnsorge 2023a).Against this backdrop,global trade growth is forecast to slow from 6 percent in 2022 to 1.7 percent in 2023(figure 1.3.D).As global con-sumption returns to its pre-pandemic mix be-twe

192、Russia has changed the destination of its oil exports without a material change in volumes(figure 1.4.B).The internationally coordinated price cap on its exports(currently set at$60/bbl)also does not appear to be a binding constraint to exports.Metal prices increased in early 2023 on expectations of
193、 a strong recovery in China,but have subsequently retraced those gains.Most agricultural commodity prices have eased this year,reflecting good production prospects for most crops,including grains and oilseeds.Crude oil prices are projected to average$80/bbl in 2023,a$8/bbl downward revision from the
194、 January forecast,and to edge up to$82/bbl in 2024,reflecting a modest pickup in demand.Prices for natural gas and coal are expected to moderate in 2023 and decline further in 2024,as Europe has made substantial progress in improv-ing efficiency and reducing energy demand.Natural gas prices in Europ
195、e are expected to remain well above their pre-pandemic five-year average,despite elevated inventories(figure 1.4.C).Energy prices could be lower if global demand is weaker than expected.In this respect,prospects in China play a particularly important role,as it is expected to account for more than h
196、alf of the increase in global oil demand in 2023.On the upside,risks to the price forecast relate to a lack of expansion in U.S.oil production,low levels of spare capacity among OPEC members,and to the possibility that the cartel may decide to cut output further.Metal prices are expected to decline
197、in 2023 and 2024,albeit to levels higher than their 2015-19 average.Price declines reflect a recovery of supply following production disruptions last year,as well as subdued global demand.Metal prices may be higher if Chinas real estate sector recovers faster than expected or if supply disruptions p
198、ersistthe importance of developments in China is illustrated by the fact that the country has accounted for a substantial proportion of global demand growth in recent months(figure 1.4.D).Agricultural prices are projected to fall 7.2 percent in 2023 and ease further in 2024,as production of grains a
199、nd oilseeds is expected to increase.None-theless,food prices have risen significantly faster than overall inflation since the pandemic,with substantially larger increases in some countries as a result of weaker currencies and transport disrup-tions.Overall,the agricultural price index is expected to
200、 remain well above pre-pandemic nominal levels in 2024.The key risks to agricul-tural production are adverse weather patterns(including the emerging El Nio),trade policy restrictions,and higher energy costs.Food insecu-rity remains a critical challenge in some EMDEs,reflecting severe weather events,

206、MIC PROSPECTS|JUNE 2023 10 Global inflation Inflation remains above target in almost all inflation-targeting economies.Median headline global inflation stood at 7.2 percent year-on-year in April,down from a peak of 9.4 percent in July 2022.This deceleration largely reflects favorable base effects fr
207、om commodity prices falling below their 2022 peaks,along with abating supply chain pressures.Moderating energy prices help explain global inflation being somewhat softer in the first quarter of 2023 than previously anticipated.However,recent core inflation measures suggest the disinflation that star
208、ted last year has made only halting progress.Across EMDEs,three-month median core inflation has decelerated somewhat in recent months,while it has picked up in advanced economies(figure 1.5.A).Amid these develop-ments,global inflation is envisaged to remain further above its 2015-19 average than was
209、 expected in January,and for a longer period(figure 1.5.B).With supply chain pressures easing and energy prices declining,excess demand appears to be a key driver of continuing high inflation in ad-vanced economies,though lingering impairments to supply capacity may also still play a role(Bernanke a
210、nd Blanchard 2023).In Europe,the role of energy prices is particularly importantthe pass-through of energy costs into broader prices may be adding to inflation persistence,which could be further exacerbated by the sunsetting of fiscal programs that have attenuated price spikes for end-users(Pill 202
211、3).The absence of econom-ic slack may also be increasing the ability of firms and workers to exercise pricing power,such that inflation has become more responsive to economic activity(Borio et al.2023;Gagnon and Sarsenba-yev 2022).In some advanced economies,particularly the euro area,market-derived
212、measures of long-term inflation compensation have moved up since last year,despite a decline in oil prices,with which they have been correlated in the past(figure 1.5.C;Elliot et al.2015).This could signal greater risks of inflation remaining above target,but may also reflect increased inflation ris

224、)since 1981(figure 1.6.A).Such yield curve inversions have often preceded U.S.recessions.Advanced-economy banks started the year with unrealized losses on bond portfolios,which increased as interest rates rose.Tis,combined with shortcomings in risk management,contribut-ed to the failure of several r
225、egional banks in the United States.In Europe,Credit Suisse came under intense market pressure in March and was subject to an emergency takeover.Te initial emergence of banking stress drove a surge in market volatility,including the sharpest five-day drop in two-year U.S.yields in more than two decad
226、es and a large decline in bank equity prices(figure 1.6.B).To bolster market confidence and limit contagion to the broader financial system,authorities have responded with emergency liquidity facilities.Te U.S.authorities also introduced an expanded deposit guarantee for the banks that failed in Mar
227、ch.Central banks have nonetheless reaffirmed intentions to maintain,or increase,the tightness of monetary policy until inflation shows a clear trend toward target.Even with continued signs of banking stress,broader risk appetite in advanced-economy financial markets has been notably resilient.High-y
228、ield corporate risk spreads have mostly stayed below their post-2010 average,despite bank lending standards reaching their most restrictive levels since the global financial crisis(figure 1.6.C).For EMDEs,higher interest rates in advanced economies often entail an extended period of costly external
229、financing.Nonresident investors have remained cautious,which has persistently weighed on portfolio capital flows to EMDEs excluding China.Under the pressure of tight financial conditions,EMDEs have diverged into two broad subsets.1 Te first subset includes those er surveys indicate that medium-term
230、inflation expectations in the United States and the euro area have been fairly stable in 2023.In many EMDEs,inflation is either accelerating once again or has stabilized at high levels(figure 1.5.D).Some common responses to recent shocks,including(tacit or explicit)indexation of wages to inflation a
231、nd increases in untargeted fossil fuel subsidies,may have added to generalized inflation pressures(IEA 2023b).A protracted period of high inflation could be especially challenging for EMDEs,where inflation expectations are generally less stable than in advanced economies and more influenced by curre
232、nt inflation rates(Kamber,Mohanty,and Morley 2020).Consensus-derived expectations for EMDE inflation one-year-ahead moved up substantially as inflation initially picked up,but declined more slowly as inflation deceler-ated last year.The distribution of short-term inflation forecasts across EMDEs has
233、 also widened markedly,with double-digit inflation expected in more than a quarter of EMDEs(figure 1.5.E).Long-term forecasts suggest that EMDEs with inflation-targeting central banks may have an advantage in durably bringing inflation down.Five years ahead,only one-in-twenty inflation-targeting EMD
234、Es is projected to have inflation more than 1 percentage point above 2010-19 average levels,compared with about one-in-six non-inflation-targeting EMDEs(figure 1.5.F).The reopening of Chinas economy is not ex-pected to have a material impact on global infla-tion.While strengthening activity will put
235、 upward pressure on domestic inflation,this will likely be limited by slack in Chinas economy,including in the labor market.In addition,the recovery in China is projected to be less commodity-intensive than in past episodes of growth accelerations,and therefore less likely to boost global prices.Glo
236、bal financial developments Global financial conditions have become restric-tive as a result of the fastest global monetary policy tightening cycle since the 1980s,along with bouts of financial instability.For nearly a year,markets have interpreted U.S.policy rates as being well 1 According to recent
237、 Moodys credit ratings,73 percent of EMDEs have sovereign ratings of B or above,while 27 percent have ratings below B.This classification is similar to,but does not perfectly align with,the common practice in capital markets of dividing countries into“emerging”and“frontier”markets,which is done on t
238、he basis of a variety of characteristics such as financial market depth and liquidity.CHAPTER 1 GLOBAL ECONOMIC PROSPECTS|JUNE 2023 12 FIGURE 1.6 Global financial developments Prior to the advanced-economy bank failures in March,the U.S.yield curve registered its deepest inversion in four decades.Du

250、 inflation has been high,central banks have helped assuage market concerns by raising policy rates earlier,and by more than,advanced-economy counterparts.Nonetheless,since the Federal Reserve started to raise its policy rate,marginal dollar-denominated borrowing costs have increased by close to 200
251、basis points even among the most resilient EMDEs.Te second subset includes EMDEs with the lowest credit ratings(below B),which have proved far more vulnerable.Teir risk premia have increased substantially,in part because they have also experienced much greater currency deprecia-tion than most other
252、EMDEs(figure 1.6.E).Many of these countries have limited fiscal capaci-ty,large unhedged foreign currency liabilities,and other economic vulnerabilities.With little or no access to commercial debt markets,they have become reliant on official creditors,or their own diminishing reserves,to meet extern
253、al financing needs.Some have slipped into crises.Spillovers from advanced-economy banking stress have so far been limited in most EMDEs,but have exhibited a similar divergence.Market perceptions of the creditworthiness of investment grade EMDEs(as measured by credit-default swap premia)were little a
254、ffected in March,after the first bank failures in advanced economies;in contrast,credit default swap spreads for non-investment-grade sovereign borrowers widened notably(figure 1.6.F).Major economies:Recent developments and outlook Activity in advanced economies slowed less than expected in early 20
255、23 but is set to weaken substan-tially later this year.Past and ongoing monetary policy rate hikes,tighter credit conditions amid banking sector stress,softening labor markets,and the lingering effects of the energy price spike of 2022 are expected to weigh on activity.In China,growth is projected t
256、o rebound more quickly than previously CHAPTER 1 GLOBAL ECONOMIC PROSPECTS|JUNE 2023 13 expected,reflecting the economic reopening and supportive policy,before moderating toward the end of 2023.Advanced economies Growth in advanced economies in late 2022 and early 2023 slowed less than expected,as t
257、ight labor markets supported robust wage growth and prevented a sharper slowdown in consumption(figure 1.7.A).The tightness in labor markets is in part related to a slowdown in labor supply,with labor force participation rates falling(partly because of a rise in early retirements)and,in the United S
258、tates,a decline in hours worked by those employed(Lee,Park,and Shin 2023).In the first quarter of 2023,GDP expanded by 1.1 percent in the United States on a quarterly basis,supported by broadly robust consumption.Euro area GDP grew by 0.3 percent at an annualized rate,reflect-ing lower energy prices
259、,easing supply bottlenecks,and fiscal policy support for firms and households.Advanced-economy growth is projected to slow to an annual average of 0.7 percent in 2023.This largely reflects the continued effect of considerable central bank policy rate hikes since early 2022.More restrictive credit co
260、nditions due to banking sector stress in advanced economies should slow domestic demand further in 2023.Past increases in energy prices and the expected softening in labor markets are also projected to weigh on activity.Growth is expected to accelerate modestly to 1.2 percent in 2024 due to a pickup
261、 in the euro area.Stronger-than-expected activity in early 2023 is projected to push average annual growth 0.2 percentage point above the January forecast,despite an expected weakening in the second half.In contrast,the pickup in growth in 2024 is weaker than previously forecast,owing to the more de
262、layed impact of monetary policy rate increases,as well as additional headwinds from tighter credit conditions.In the United States,growth is expected to weaken significantly through 2023 and early 2024,mainly as a result of the lagged effects of the sharp rise in policy rates over the past year and

272、nomic policy support.China Economic activity in China bounced back in early 2023,spurred by the earlier-than-expected eco-nomic reopening,which bolstered consumer spending,including on services-related activity(figure 1.7.D).The property sector began to emerge from a protracted slump,supported by wi
273、de-ranging policies.These included liquidity provisions to developers and measures to ensure the completion of unfinished projects.Meanwhile,goods trade remained subdued.Growth is projected to rebound to 5.6 percent in 2023,as the economic reopening drives consumer spending,particularly on domestic
274、services.Investment is expected to pick up only modestly as infrastructure-related stimulus fades,and high debt levels weigh on the property sector recovery.Weak external demand will also dampen growth.While the reopening will support services trade,subdued infrastructure and manufacturing sector ac
275、tivity will weigh on overall trade,as services activity tends to be less trade intensive.Inflation is expected to remain below target,allowing mone-tary policy to remain mildly accommodative.The fiscal policy stance is expected to be broadly neutral.With the reopening boost fading in the second half
276、 of the year,growth will slow to 4.6 percent in 2024,as moderating consumption offsets a small pickup in exports.Key downside risks include continuing stress in the real estate sector,a sharper-than-anticipated slowdown in global growth and trade,and the lingering possibility of disruptive COVID-19
277、waves.On the upside,a more vigorous consumption recovery could support growth for longer than expected.Emerging market and developing economies EMDE growth is expected to pick up in 2023 almost entirely due to Chinas economic reopening.Excluding China,growth in EMDEs is set to slow markedly.A protra
278、cted period of tight domestic hold spending as the large stock of savings accu-mulated during the pandemic is depleted,and unusually tight labor markets begin to rebalance,gradually reducing the historically high job vacancy rates(figure 1.7.C).Decelerating con-sumption and residential investment wi
279、ll likely contribute to very feeble activity in the second half of 2023.After growing 1.1 percent in 2023,the U.S.economy is likely to remain weak in 2024,decelerating to 0.8 percent.Activity is expected to pick up toward the end of next year,as inflation eases and the effects of monetary policy tig
280、htening fade.In the euro area,growth proved more resilient than expected at the turn of the year,supported by warmer weather and lower natural gas prices.Energy price pressures have been fading,but core inflation has remained elevated,reflecting the strength of the labor market,robust wage growth,la
281、gged effects from high gas and electricity prices,and broadening price pressures.The persistence of underlying inflation pressures,as seen in the core services component which excludes shelter,suggests that monetary policy may need to be tighter than previously expected.Growth is forecast to slow to
282、 0.4 percent in 2023,from 3.5 percent in 2022,owing mainly to the lagged effects of monetary policy tightening.The upward revision of 0.4 percentage point to growth this year relative to January mainly reflects the better-than-expected data at the beginning of the year and the downgrade to energy pr
283、ice projec-tions.After bottoming out in 2023,growth is expected to firm to 1.3 percent in 2024,supported by reforms and investments funded by the Recov-ery and Resilience Facility.The 0.3 percentage point downward revision to the forecast for 2024 partly reflects the effects of tight monetary policy
284、 over a longer period than previously expected.In Japan,growth is expected to slow to 0.8 percent in 2023,as the lagged effects of synchro-nized monetary policy tightening in major ad-vanced economies weigh on external demand.Although price pressures are expected to subside in the second half of 202
285、3 as the pass-through from a surge in import prices runs its course,persistent weakness in real wage growth will hold back consumer demand.Growth is anticipated to edge CHAPTER 1 GLOBAL ECONOMIC PROSPECTS|JUNE 2023 15 monetary policy,fiscal consolidation,and weak external demand will curb growth in
286、many EMDEs.Although advanced-economy banking stress has so far not translated to EMDE financial sectors,the effects of more restrictive global financial conditions will remain a headwind to growth,particularly for EMDEs with weaker credit ratings.In LICs,domestic vulnerabilities,increased fragility,
287、and persistently high poverty rates,will continue to weigh on economic recoveries.Recent developments EMDE growth firmed somewhat in early 2023.External demand for many countries was support-ed by the pickup in growth in China and the unexpected resilience in advanced economies.Indicators of EMDE do
288、mestic demand have improved,but from a low level.Consumer confidence,for example,has improved slightly from its trough in the last quarter of 2022,but remains well below recent averages(figure 1.8.A).Services activity also picked up to start the year,with services PMIs indicating solid expansion in
289、several large EMDEs.Although measures of EMDE financial stress have generally declined since last year,financing costs remain elevated,reflecting both domestic and advanced-economy monetary policy tightening.This has weighed on EMDE investment and output in sectors that are more sensitive to interes

302、ONOMIC PROSPECTS|JUNE 2023 16 reversed the squeeze on consumers and industrial activity from last years worsening terms of trade.Across LICs,high prices for food and energy continue to weigh on consumptionespecially in fragile countries and in small agricultural com-modity producers,where violence,a
303、dverse weather shocks,and elevated production costs have dampened activity.Sizable financing needs,together with rising debt service costs,present a growing fiscal burden.Outlook EMDE outlook Growth in EMDEs is projected to edge up to 4 percent in 2023,which almost entirely reflects the rebound in C
304、hina.Excluding China,EMDE growth is set to decline to 2.9 percent this year,from 4.1 percent last year,due to the drag from high inflation and the associated monetary tight-eningboth domestically and via monetary policy spillovers from advanced economiesas well as from slowing external demand.From a
305、 regional perspective,growth is set to slow in all regions except EAP and ECA(box 1.1).Growth in EMDEs excluding China is expected to pick up modestly to 3.4 percent in 2024,as the effects of monetary tightening diminish and several larger EMDEs emerge from domestic strains,including natural disaste
306、rs,power shortages,and political turbulence.Substantial upgrades to projections for China and,to a lesser extent,Russia are the main drivers of the 0.6 percentage point upward revision to EMDE growth this year(figure 1.9.A).The improved near-term outlook for China reflects a greater-than-expected bo
307、ost from economic reopening.In Russia,the contraction this year is envisaged to be milder than initially forecast,partially due to the continued flow of energy exports.EMDE growth is expected to receive little support from external demand.Chinas recovery is envis-aged to be services oriented,rather
308、than trade-intensive.Aside from a pickup in tourism flows to Southeast Asian countries,the projections therefore entail only a muted growth impulse from China to other EMDEs.Similarly,near-term EMDE growth will benefit only marginally from stronger-than-expected advanced-economy growth in 2023,which
309、 largely reflects positive surprises at the beginning of the year giving way to weak subsequent growth in the second half of 2023 and in 2024.Gradual fiscal consolidation is expected in the majority of EMDEs in 2023;however,in aggre-gate,this is offset by a few larger EMDEs with increasing deficits.
310、Where consolidation takes place,adjustment is foreseen to occur primarily via reduced spending,as weak growth weighs on government revenue.Spending-led retrenchment is expected to intensify in 2024.This will help rebuild fiscal buffers,but also dampen demand.Accordingly,the aggregate EMDE fiscal imp
311、ulse is about neutral for growth this year and negative in 2024(figure 1.9.B).Many EMDE central banks have also continued to tighten monetary policies,or retained high rates for longer than previously expected.Given lags in the transmission of monetary tightening,invest-ment growth is expected to be
312、 weak throughout the year,with labor markets and consumption also softening.Moreover,market pricing suggests that inflation-adjusted policy rates will rise further in many EMDEs,as inflation declines only gradual-ly,taking aggregate EMDE real rates further into positive territory(figure 1.9.C).This
313、should help to combat inflation in many countries but will entail a continued drag on EMDE activity throughout 2024.The global tightening cycle has weighed especially on growth prospects in EMDEs with weaker sovereign credit profiles,which are expected to grow just 0.9 percent in 2023.Projections fo
314、r these economies have been repeatedly downgraded as global financial conditions have tightened(figure 1.9.D).In many such countries,debt service is consuming a large proportion of limited government revenues,and non-concessional external finance has largely dried up.In the absence of fiscal capacit
315、y to buffer commodity price shocks and support populations,living standards and macroeconomic stability have deteriorated.CHAPTER 1 GLOBAL ECONOMIC PROSPECTS|JUNE 2023 17 BOX 1.1 Regional perspectives:Outlook and risks Growth is projected to diverge across EMDE regions this year and next.It is expec
316、ted to pick up in 2023 in East Asia and Pacific(EAP)and Europe and Central Asia(ECA),as Chinas reopening spurs a recovery and as growth prospects in several large economies improve.In contrast,growth is forecast to moderate in all other regions,particularly in Latin America and the Caribbean(LAC)and
317、 the Middle East and North Africa(MNA).Headwinds from weak external demand,tight global financial conditions,and high inflation will drag on activity this year,especially in LAC,South Asia(SAR),and Sub-Saharan Africa(SSA).The lingering impact of the Russian Federations invasion of Ukraine will conti
318、nue to weigh on growth across regions,particularly in ECA.Next year,growth is projected to moderate in EAP and SAR but to pick up elsewhere as domestic headwinds ease and external demand strengthens.Downside risks to the outlook for all regions include possible further global financial stress and mo
319、re persistent domestic inflation than projected in the baseline.Geopolitical tensions,conflict and social unrest,and natural disasters stemming from climate change also present downside risks,to varying degrees.The materialization of such risks could further weaken potential growth,leading to a prol
320、onged period of slower growth in all EMDE regions.Introduction EMDE regions are contending with a mix of predomi-nately negative global headwinds,resulting in diverging growth prospects.Amid weak growth of global demand and output,trade growth is expected to remain subdued and weigh on activity in a
321、ll regions.Inflation is moder-ating but remains elevated,prolonging monetary policy tightening cycles in many countries.Growth is project-ed to strengthen in EAP and ECA in 2023 but to decline in other regions.Commodity prices,particularly for energy and food,are expected to moderate this year.This
322、will help lower inflation and support activity in commodity-importing regions,including EAP and SAR,as well as some countries in LAC,but weigh on commodity exporters,particularly in ECA and MNA.Against the backdrop of subdued growth,all regions face a suite of downside risks.These include financial
323、sector stress and weaker growth stemming from tighter global financial conditions,with highly indebted regions,particularly ECA,LAC and SSA,and many oil-importing countries in MNA,especially vulnerable.In all regions persistently high inflation could lead to further domestic monetary policy tighteni
324、ng.Height-ened geopolitical tensions could disrupt trade and damage globally integrated sectors,especially in EAP and ECA.Further risks are posed by conflicts and social instability,already severe in ECA,LAC and MNA,and natural disasters,including extreme weather events related to climate change,wit
325、h SSA and small states in EAP and LAC heavily exposed.In this context,this box considers two questions:What are the cross-regional differences in the growth outlook?What are the key risks to the outlook for each region?Outlook Growth is projected to diverge across EMDE regions in 2023 in the face of
326、 persistently high inflation and global headwindsnotably slower growth in the major advanced economies and tight global financial condi-tions(figure B1.1.1.A).In EAP and ECA,growth is forecast to strengthen in 2023,to rates higher than projected in January,mainly reflecting developments in the two r
327、egions largest economiesChina and the Russian Federation.In China,an earlier-than-expected reopening of the economy is driving a rebound in growth this year,supported by consumer spending,particularly on services.Output in Russia is projected to contract less than anticipated in January mainly due t
328、o more resilient-than-expected oil production and higher-than-expected growth momentum from 2022.Persis-tent contraction in export volumes,weak domestic demand,policy uncertainty,and sanctions in response to Russias invasion of Ukraine will continue to weigh on activity.In other EMDE regions,growth
329、is forecast to weaken this year,and,except in LAC and SAR,more steeply than projected in January(figure B1.1.1.B).Growth in LAC and MNA is forecast to slow the most in 2023,following strong expansions in 2022 supported by economic reopening and high commodity prices.In MNAs oil exporters,cuts to oil
330、 productionwith Note:This box was prepared by Samuel Hill.CHAPTER 1 GLOBAL ECONOMIC PROSPECTS|JUNE 2023 18 spillovers to broader economic activityare expected to weigh on growth.In MNAs oil importers,high inflation,external financing pressures,and limited access to foreign currency are expected to c
331、onstrain activity.Growth is also projected to moderate in SARalbeit only marginallyand SSA,as combinations of weak external demand,high inflation,and instability,including from debt distress and natural disasters,weigh on activity.While headline inflation has declined from recent peaks in all EMDE r
332、egions,it remains elevated by historical standards,except in EAP and LAC,and above central bank targets in most inflation-targeting countries in most regions(figure B1.1.1.C).Inflation remains especially high in ECA and SSA,reflecting ongoing energy and food supply disruptions.While headline inflati
333、on is expected to continue moderating in the coming months,core inflation is likely to remain elevated,as higher production costs,including for labor,feed through to consumer prices.In crisis-afflicted economies,particularly in MNA and SAR,significant currency depreciations have added to inflationary pressures.Persistently high inflation will continue to be a drag on growth this year,eroding real
