Economic indicators promise a brightening outlook, but there is a multitude of risks potentially destabilizing the global path of growth

Development of the world economy

Potential risk factors for the world economy

> Inward shift in policies towards protectionism

> A faster-than-expected pace of interest rate hikes in the US, possibly triggering a more rapid tightening in global financial conditions

> An aggressive rollback of financial regulation

> Financial tightening in emerging market economies

> Adverse feedback loops among weak demand, low inflation, weak balance sheets, and anemic productivity growth

> Noneconomic factors such as geopolitical factors, political discord or risks from weak governance and corruption

> Average global economic growth is expected to increase to 3.5% in 2017, but longer-term potential growth rates remain subdued in advanced economies

> Prospects are brightening for many countries, but growth for a sizeable number of commodity exporters remains modest

> According to the IMF, the global economy seems to "be gaining momentum" and could be at a turning point. However, IMF advises policymakers to invest in their economies, particularly in people, to build up greater resilience to structural changes, including the changing modalities of globalization

> Among the reforms suggested by the IMF are: "active labor market policies, greater tax progressivity where helpful, more effective investment in education and changes to housing and credit markets that facilitate worker mobility". In addition, growing inequalities within countries should be addressed "to ensure the stability of an open, collaborative trading system"

2. Financial indicators 3. Other indicators 1. Real economic indicators

> Probability of a recession over a four-quarter horizon till Q1 2018 declined in most regions compared to the October 2016 report

> Japan shows the highest recession risk with 44% up until the first quarter of 2018. Within the Eurozone, the risk is estimated at 30% while the United States face only 22%

> Growth outlook in advanced economies is lifted due to a stronger cyclical momentum and the anticipated US fiscal stimulus, external demand and commodity prices boosting growth perspectives in emerging Asia

1) The output gap is actual minus potential output, as a percentage of potential output. Potential output – referred to as the production capacity of the economy – is the maximum amount

of goods and services an economy can turn out when it is most efficient (at full capacity). Estimates of the output gap are subject to significant margins of uncertainty

Output gap [% of potential GDP]1)

> The output gap shows the difference between the actual level of GDP and its potential level. Negative (positive) values of the output gap indicate that factories and workers operate below (above) their most efficient capacity

> Diversity in output gaps is consistent with heterogeneous and subdued core inflation dynamics in different countries

> Ongoing recovery and gradual tightening of output gaps are set to keep growth modestly above potential in many advanced economies over the next few years

> As growth and core inflation prospects in core euro area economies gain momentum, there is also a risk that euro area monetary policy tightens, afflicting the recovery in countries with high unemployment and large output gaps
