The OECD released its Interim Economic Outlook today highlighting that while global growth proved more resilient than expected in early 2025, momentum is now moderating with industrial production, retail sales, and labour markets being challenged.
Our Executive Director Hanni Rosenbaum stated: "Today’s OECD Interim Economic Outlook is a reminder that while the global economy has shown resilience, significant risks remain that weigh on our economies. We welcome the OECD’s call for stronger structural reform efforts and for close dialogue to preserve the economic benefits of rules-based global trade and to maximise the benefits of new technologies such as AI. Close discussion with the business community is more important than ever to reinforce competitiveness and to facilitate prosperous economies for all."
