Christine Lagarde, (2019), “A Delicate Moment for the Global Economy: Three Priority Areas for Action”, IMF, 2 April
In January, the IMF projected global growth for 2019 and 2020 at around 3 ½ percent—less than in the recent past, but still reasonable. It has since lost further momentum, as you will see from our updated forecast next week. Only two years ago, 75 percent of the global economy experienced an upswing. For this year, we expect 70 percent of the global economy to experience a slowdown in growth.
