  Growth prospects vary significantly across regions. GDP growth in the United States is projected to be 2.8% in 2025, before slowing to 2.4% in 2026. In the euro area, the recovery in real household incomes, tight labour markets and reductions in policy interest rates continue to drive growth. Euro area GDP growth is projected at 1.3% in 2025 and 1.5% in 2026. Growth in Japan is projected to expand by 1.5% in 2025 but then decline to 0.6% in 2026.

• Global Economic Outlook: slowing amid persistent supply shocks - EY

  UK economic momentum has weakened following a politically sensitive Autumn Budget, with GDP growth projected at 1.5% in 2025, slowing to 1.1% in 2026 as higher taxes and lingering trade frictions weigh on activity. Unemployment is projected to remain near 4.9% in 2025 and easing only slightly to 4.8% by the close of 2026. This limited improvement reflects persistent labor market softness and modest job losses, with higher employment taxes weighing on hiring activity. Inflation has likely peaked and is forecast to decline from 3.7% in 2025 Q4 to 2.3% in 2026 Q4, aided by easing energy costs and slowing wage growth. This disinflationary trend should allow the BoE to ease policy cautiously, bringing the policy rate to 3.5% by the end of 2026. ## [...] India’s economy remains resilient with real GDP growth expected to ease modestly in the coming year, still supported by solid domestic demand, resilient services activity and GST-driven consumption strength. Private investment is improving but remains sensitive to tariff-related demand risks, while weak exports — particularly to the US — highlight rising external vulnerabilities amid an unresolved trade deal. We expect real GDP growth will moderate from 7.6% in 2025 to 6.8% in 2026. CPI inflation remains benign, with CPI at a record low of 0.3% y/y in October 2025, well below the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) midpoint target of 4%. The RBI unanimously cut the repo rate by 25bp to 5.25% in December 2025 meeting and retained a neutral stance, while also announcing government bond [...] Emerging markets continue to show uneven resilience, with aggregate growth easing modestly from 4.5% in 2025 to 4.1% in 2026. India stands out with projected growth of about 7.6% in 2025 and 6.8% in 2026, supported by strong infrastructure investment, robust domestic demand and expanding services-sector momentum. China faces intensifying headwinds, including aging demographics, youth unemployment, underconsumption, excess capacity and persistent deflationary pressures. Despite policy support, growth is expected to slow from 4.9% in 2025 to 4.4% in 2026. In Latin America, Brazil remains exposed to fiscal fragilities and inflation stickiness, while Argentina continues to face stabilization challenges amid high inflation and limited policy space.
