IMF cuts global growth forecast as China, falling oil prices weigh
Jan 21, 2016 The International Monetary Fund recently cut its global growth forecasts for the third time in less than a year, citing a sharp slowdown in China trade and weak commodity prices.
The Fund forecast that the world economy will grow at 3.4 percent in 2016 and 3.6 percent in 2017. Both years feature a 0.2 percentage drop from the previous estimates made last October.
The forecast update came as global financial markets have been plummeted by China’s economic slowdown and dropping oil prices.
Commenting on this, Maurice Obstfeld, IMF Economic counsellor said:
“China could encounter rough patches where growth slows more than expected directly affecting trade partners while disturbing foreign exchange and other asset markets world wide”
The IMF however maintained its previous China growth forecasts of 6.3 percent in 2016 and 6.0 percent in 2017, both of which represent a sharp slowdowns from 6.9 percent in 2015 and 7.3 percent in 2014.
Obstfeld went on to say:
“These oil price movements certainly impose stresses on oil exporters especially in countries where the government and budget depends on oil revenues but there is a silver lining in terms of affects on consumers worldwide, so they are not an unmitigated negative,”

You actually make it appear really easy with your presentation but I to
find this topic to be really something that I believe I might by no
means understand. It seems too complex and extremely huge for me.
I’m looking forward on your next submit, I will attempt to get the grasp of it!

The next time I read a blog, I hope that it doesn’t fail me just as much as this particular one. After all, Yes, it was my choice to read, but I genuinely believed you would have something interesting to talk about. All I hear is a bunch of moaning about something that you can fix if you were not too busy searching for attention.
