What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The OECD Interim Economic Outlook was presented in Paris. The organization revised its projections for Italy's GDP, which is expected to grow by 0.9% in 2026, up from the previous estimate of 0.5% in 2025. However, the outlook projects a contraction to 0.6% in 2027. The organization noted that global growth is weaker than last year and that inflation has started to rise again.

OECD general secretary Mathias Cormann warned that global economic headwinds are affecting growth prospects. He added that while global growth has been better than expected, the reserves needed to cushion energy shocks are running out. The organization stated that countries must lay the foundations for long-term growth through skills and diversified energy supplies.
