This Week, The World : GDP Forecast by IMF


This Week, The World :

This week the IMF released a demoralized update on the world economy as they anticipates global gross domestic product, GDP to increase by 3.5% this year (the slowest pace since 2009).

The approximation for growth in Britain was cut to just 0.2% (behind France on 0.3%) and growth rates were trimmed for some big emerging markets, so far seen as a barrier against a global slowdown.

The IMF warned that things could get worse if America did not deviate their course from the looming “fiscal cliff” of tax rises and spending cuts designed to boot in at the end of 2012.

It also called for a “robust and complete monetary union” in the euro zone according to The Economist
