The global economy surprised to the upside in 2023. After a soft start to 2024, we forecast the global economy to grow at a decent clip again this year. To maintain momentum, it is imperative to accelerate investment as consumption growth moderates in major economies.

However, the risk of supply shocks and policy errors linger – the emergence of either could derail global economic growth.
