World Economic Situation and Prospects 2018

The World Economic Situation and Prospects 2018 has been released. It provides information on how global growth gives us the opportunity to tackle inequality, climate change and other essential topics.

In it you will read that:
  • The global economy is projected to grow by 3% in 2018-2019, the highest rate recorded since 2011.
  • GDP is expected to grow across all major developed economies but very few Least Developed Countries will reach the Sustainable Development Goals target of 7% GDP growth.
  • There is enormous potential for renewable energy sources that still only provide 11% of global power generation even though they account for over half of all recently installed power capacity.
