World economic growth is expected to strengthen gradually over the coming two years. World output is expected to rise by 3.7 and 3.9 percent in 2015 and 2016, respectively, following an increase of 3.4 percent in the current year. Growth is projected to accelerate predominantly in the advanced...

Following a weak start into 2015, the global economy is expected to pick up again in the course of this year. Average annual world output growth will nevertheless remain sluggish at 3.4 percent on a purchasing power parity weighted basis, before accelerating modestly to 3.8 percent next year....

The world economy is expanding at a more moderate pace with growth momentum continuing to shift from emerging to advanced economies. World GDP will increase by 3.3 per cent this year - even some-what less than the already modest growth in the recent past. For 2016 and 2017 we expect growth to...

The world economy seems to have stabilized in the first months of the year. The underlying growth dynamics, however, remain weak although we expect growth to accelerate somewhat going forward. This year, global output (at PPP exchange rates) will expand by 3.1 percent, which is close to last...

During the first half of the year global growth remained sluggish. While activity in emerging economies stabilized, growth in advanced economies softened. Over the next two years, we expect the world economy to pick up pace gradually, although without turning into a strong synchronized global...

World economic growth has picked up from the sluggish pace registered at the start of the year. We expect global growth at PPP exchange rates to accelerate to 3.5 and 3.6 percent in 2017 and 2018, respectively, up from 3.1 percent this year. Growth in advanced economies will continue at a...

The world economy has gained traction in the course of 2016 despite elevated policy uncertainty and seems to have picked up further in the beginning of 2017. The change in the US government apparently has led to expectations of substantial policy stimulus, while a competitive valuation of...
