    IMF Cuts Growth Projections for Brazil, China; Raises Global Forecast

    The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has revised its economic growth projections in its latest Global Economic Prospects report. It has reduced the growth outlook for Brazil's GDP to 2.2% in 2026 and 1.9% in 2027, and for China's GDP. Conversely, it has increased the global economic growth forecast. The IMF attributes these changes to various factors including restrictive monetary conditions, withdrawal of fiscal support, and global trade tensions.
