Factors Affecting the Global Economy 

A rise in COVID-19 cases: 

More cases have been reported globally due to Omicron, a new COVID-19 variant, which has disrupted supply chain management. However, the worldwide vaccination campaign has decreased COVID-19 fatalities. 

Russia-Ukraine war:  

Global economic expansion will be hampered by a protracted conflict between Russia and Ukraine. Due to the war, trade and investment have suffered because Russia has been subjected to economic sanctions, and several significant corporations have ceased operations there. 

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.
