IMF warns of ‘multiple challenges’ to global economic recovery
IMF:全球经济复苏面临“多重挑战”
The global economic recovery from coronavirus will run into “multiple challenges” this year, the IMF said on Tuesday, warning of lower growth and higher inflation.
国际货币基金组织(IMF)周二表示,全球经济摆脱新冠疫情影响的复苏将在今年遭遇“多重挑战”。该组织警告称,增长将会放缓,通胀将会上升。
Significantly downgrading its 2022 forecasts for economic activity in the world’s two largest economies, China and the US, the updated economic forecasts from the fund show it becoming more pessimistic about the scope for a full recovery from the pandemic.
在其发布的最新经济预测中,IMF显著下调了对全球最大两个经济体——中国和美国——2022年经济活动的预测,显示它对从疫情全面复苏的前景变得更加悲观。
The outlook would be even worse, the IMF added, if central banks have to take firmer action to quell inflation or geopolitical tensions in Ukraine intensify.
IMF补充说,如果各国央行不得不采取更坚定的行动来平息通胀,或者乌克兰的地缘政治紧张局势加剧,前景将更加糟糕。
