Global and regional economic risk factors

Overview

The global economy is showing resilience against systemic shocks, including energy disruptions in the Middle East and supply chain instabilities such as the Red Sea crisis. While the International Monetary Fund notes that supply diversification and renewable energy growth have helped mitigate energy shocks, risks like rising oil prices and inflation remain. Artificial intelligence is currently viewed as a significant factor supporting global economic activity.

However, specific regional outlooks suggest emerging vulnerabilities. In India, economic recovery faces potential risks from an oil supply shock and a possible slowdown in artificial intelligence investment due to rising chip costs and competition. Additionally, while high-tech exports have responded to currency depreciation, mid-technology sectors like textiles and plastics have not seen a significant export recovery, leading to calls for lower export tariffs and new trade deals.
