IMF Revises 2026 Global Growth Forecast Amid US-Iran Tensions
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has adjusted its global growth forecast for 2026 to 3.0 percent, reflecting the impact of renewed geopolitical tensions between the United States and Iran. This conflict has disrupted shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, a critical passage for global oil supplies, leading to increased energy prices and inflationary pressures worldwide. Despite these challenges, Indonesia's financial sector has shown resilience, supported by strong domestic consumption and investment growth. The Financial System Stability Committee (KSSK) in Indonesia has emphasized the importance of policy coordination to maintain economic stability amid these external pressures.
