IMF raises global growth outlook

The IMF has raised its global growth outlook to 3.3% for 2025 and 2026, driven primarily by India and China's economies, which are expected to grow at 6.5% and 4.6%, respectively.
The United States is predicted to grow by 2.7% under the new administration, which is an increase of 0.5% from previous expectations, according to the IMF.
Growth in the European Union, especially in Germany, is forecasted to be slower due to high energy prices and potential US import tariffs, with Germany expected to see only 0.3% growth.
The IMF warns that excessive deregulation in the US could lead to financial vulnerabilities, as stated by Chief Economist Pierre-Olivier Gourinchas.
