Economic

Prospects

Assuring

growth over

the medium term

Despite better financial conditions,

stronger growth remains elusive

• More than 4 years after financial crisis hit, high-income countries continue to suffer from volatility and slow growth

• Developing country prospects solid, but need to focus on productivity enhancing domestic policies if they are to regain pre-crisis growth rates

• Risks have declined but remain and countries are vulnerable to commodity price shocks, high-income volatility, and a freezing of capital flows

• A steady hand is required to avoid pro-cyclical policy and in order to rebuild macroeconomic buffers so that authorities can react in case of new external (or domestic) shocks

Outlook remains precarious

• Risks have declined and are more balanced,

but remain:

– Persistent fiscal uncertainty in the U.S.

– Euro Area risks

– A sharp drop of investment in China

– Oil or food supply shock

16

Developing countries need to focus on domestic

issues

• Overall aggregates hide vulnerabilities at the

country level

• Current account deficits in oil-importing

countries have deteriorated 3.2 percentage

points since 2007

• Fiscal deficits of all developing countries

have deteriorated by 2.9 pp.

• Rising debt (public and private increases

vulnerabiities)

Strong growth is not guaranteed

• Short-term fluctuations feel urgent, but

durable depends on the sustainability of

growth

• Requires renewed focus on structural policies

– Infrastructure investments

– Education (quality and quantity)

– Regulatory environment

– Macroeconomic stability

Concluding remarks

• May-June Euro Area pessimism has had larger than

expected real-side effects, global economy is much

weaker

• Financial conditions have improved but weak growth in

high-income countries remains a factor for developing

countries

• Developing countries need to focus on domestic policy

needs and vulnerabilities

• Sustained strong growth in developing countries will

depend on productivity enhancements, investments in

infrastructure, human capital and governance
