Advanced economies will expand 2.6% in 2022 and emerging market countries will grow 3.8%below the March forecasts, which were 3.2% and 4.2%.
The current high inflation rates could persist for several more months, due to high energy and food prices.
Except for Russia, no recession is currently expected in any G-20 country in 2022 or 2023.
Risks that could lower forecasts further include an escalation of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and a faster-than-expected slowdown in China’s growth.
