Factors Affecting the Global Economy
A rise in COVID-19 cases:
As a result of Omi Omicron cron, a new variant of COVID-19, more cases have been reported worldwide, resulting in the disruption of supply chain management. However, the global vaccination drive has reduced the fatality from COVID-19.
Russia-Ukraine war:
A prolonged conflict between Russia and Ukraine will continue to affect global economic growth. Investment and trade have been adversely affected due to the war as economic sanctions have been imposed on Russia, and several big companies have stopped their operations in the country.
Rising Inflation and Interest Rates:
As a result of rising inflation rates in both developing and advanced economies, central banks have been forced to tighten monetary policy and raise interest rates to keep prices from rising. However, a steady increase in interest rates could cause financial distress in some economies.
