What happened
The World Bank has revised its projection for Nepal's economic growth to 3.7 percent for the current fiscal year 2026-27, down from the earlier projection of 4.2 percent. This slowdown reflects disruptions to industry and services. The assessment links the decline to the extensive damage caused by floods in Nepal, which resulted in losses estimated at $2.69 billion.
