Abstract

  • • Strong Asian growth is boosting the recovery in the world economy, with global GDP now forecast to increase in 2000 by 4.6 per cent, the highest since 1996.

  • • Inflationary pressures in the US will prompt the US Fed to raise interest rates a further three- quarter points by the end of the year.

  • • Inflation in the Euro Area will remain above 2 per cent in 2000 and 200I, and this will lead to a further rise in interest rates of half a percentage point by the end of the year.

  • • The robust Asian recovery is stimulating the Japanese economy which is now expected to grow by almost 2 per cent in 2000.
