Inflation continues torecede and risks have become more balanced globally. Nonetheless, medium-term growth prospects remain at the lowest level in decades and a smooth completion of the disinflation process should not betaken for granted. While the outlook for low-income developing countries (LIDCs) is improving, risks are tilted to the downside. The pace of convergence toward higher living standards has slowed, making it increasingly challenging to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In the last mile of disinflation, central banks should ensure that inflation moves durably to target: they should neither ease policies prematurely nor delay too long and risk causing target undershoot. Fiscal policies need to rebuild budgetary room and ensure debt sustainability. Fostering faster productivity growth and facilitating the green transition are keys to improving long-term growth prospects. Multilateral cooperation is key to enhancing the resilience of the global economy in a more shock-prone world.  \n ECONOMIC OUTLOOK AND RISKS  \nThe global economy has been surprisingly resilient    \n…though growth remains subdued in both the near and the medium term.  \nAEs are expecting a slight uptick in growth.  \nRegional  \nvariations persist  \nThe global economy has shown a surprising resilience during global disinflation in the last two years, thanks to favorable demand and supply developments in major economies. Global growth for 2024 is projected at 3.2 percent, up by 0.3 percentage points compared to the projection from last October.  \nDespite the resilience, near-term growth is below the historical average of  \n3.8 percent between 2000-19, reflecting restrictive monetary policies, withdrawal of fiscal support, and low underlying productivity growth. The latter is driven by declining labor force participation, weaker business investment, and persistent structural frictions that misallocate resources. Together with deepening geoeconomic fragmentation, these factors lead to a medium-term growth forecast of 3.1 percent for the global economy, the lowest level in decades.  \nGrowth in advanced economies (AEs) is projected to rise slightly by 0.1 percentage point to 1.7 percent from 2023 to 2024, driven primarily by robust U.S. economy. Among other AEs, while strengthening household consumption following the fall in inflation is expected to support the recovery, the pace is held back by persistently weak consumer sentiment and the fading of other one-off positive factors.  \nWhile the aggregate growth in emerging market and developing economies  \n(EMDEs) is expected to remain broadly stable at 4.2 percent for 2024, the paths of  \nunderneath astable aggregate EMDE growth.  \nWhile the outlook for LIDCs is improving, longterm challenges continue to be daunting.  \nInflation is declining, with different speed across countries.  \nRisks have  \nbecome balanced.  \neconomies in different regions are projected to vary. A slowing Chinese economy is a risk to weakening the momentum in emerging and developing Asia, while Latin America and the Caribbean are expected to face headwinds from the effects of tight policies to bring down inflation.
