The turmoil has resulted in growth forecasts being cut in nearly 70% of all economies-across all regions and income groups. Global growth is projected to slow to 2.3 percent in 2025, nearly half a percentage point lower than the rate that had been expected at the start of the year. A global recession is not expected.
