Global Economic Outlook - The World Bank's January 2026 Global Economic Outlook report indicates that despite ongoing trade tensions and policy uncertainties, global economic resilience exceeds expectations. The global growth rate is projected to slightly decline to 2.6% in 2026, with a rebound to 2.7% in 2027, showing that while resilience is present, growth momentum is weakening [1][2]. Economic Recovery Disparities - In 2025, global per capita GDP is expected to be approximately 10% higher than in 2019. However, the recovery is highly uneven, with nearly 90% of developed economies returning to pre-pandemic income levels, while over a quarter of emerging markets and developing economies, particularly low-income and conflict-affected countries, still have per capita income below 2019 levels. This highlights the severe impact on low-income and vulnerable nations [2][3]. Trade Dynamics - Global trade relations remain tense, suppressing economic recovery. Trade growth in 2025 is primarily driven by companies preemptively importing and exporting to avoid tariff risks. However, from 2026 onwards, trade growth is expected to slow significantly as inventory levels decrease and tariff impacts become more pronounced, with trade policy uncertainties dampening business investment and confidence [2][3]. Inflation Trends - Global inflation is generally on a downward trend, with most countries' inflation rates nearing central bank targets. The impact of U.S. tariffs on goods inflation has been partially offset by inventory accumulation and supply chain adjustments. However, financial market volatility remains a significant risk factor [3][4]. Employment Challenges - Employment challenges are a core issue for developing economies, as insufficient growth will hinder their ability to create enough jobs for a rapidly growing young population. By 2035, approximately 1.2 billion young people are expected to enter the labor market, but many countries still have per capita income below pre-pandemic levels, exacerbating employment pressures, particularly in key sectors like infrastructure, agriculture, healthcare, tourism, and manufacturing [4][5]. Policy Recommendations - The report emphasizes the need for coordinated global policies to address trade, debt, climate, and financial risks. Recommendations include maintaining and improving the multilateral trade system, supporting financing and debt relief for developing economies, enhancing global cooperation on climate risks, and ensuring financial stability through coordinated macroeconomic policies [5][6].
