The United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) has issued a warning about the global economic growth slowing down to 2.4% in 2023, down from 3% in 2022. The report emphasizes the need for institutional reforms in the global financial structure and the adoption of more realistic policies to address inflation, inequality, and sovereign debt, as well as strengthening oversight of major markets. Despite the increase in interest rates in the United States, there are concerns about a decline in investments due to prolonged high-interest rates. Indications of an economic recovery are expected in 2024.
