>IMF downgrades 2022 global growth forecast
IMF下調(diào)2022年全球經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)預(yù)期

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) on Tuesday projected the global economy to grow by 4.4% in 2022, down by 0.5 percentage points from October's forecast, according to a newly released update to its World Economic Outlook report.
國際貨幣基金組織(IMF)1月25日公布最新的《世界經(jīng)濟(jì)展望》，預(yù)計(jì)2022年全球經(jīng)濟(jì)將增長(zhǎng)4.4%，較去年10月份預(yù)測(cè)值下調(diào)0.5個(gè)百分點(diǎn)。

Growth will slow as economies grapple with supply disruptions, higher inflation, record debt and persistent uncertainty, First Deputy Managing Director Gita Gopinath said at a virtual press briefing. "The rapid spread of the Omicron variant has led to renewed mobility restrictions in many countries and increased labor shortages," said Gopinath, who was previously IMF's chief economist.
IMF第一副總裁、前首席經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家吉塔?戈皮納特在視頻新聞發(fā)布會(huì)上表示，2022年全球經(jīng)濟(jì)面臨供應(yīng)鏈中斷、通貨膨脹高企、債務(wù)創(chuàng)新高、持續(xù)的不確定性等多重不利因素，因此增長(zhǎng)將放緩。戈皮納特表示，變異新冠病毒奧密克戎毒株快速傳播導(dǎo)致多國重新出臺(tái)限制人員流動(dòng)措施，加劇了勞動(dòng)力短缺現(xiàn)象。

She added that while Omicron will weigh on activity in the first quarter of 2022, this effect will fade starting in the second quarter.
她表示，雖然奧密克戎毒株將在2022年第一季度拖累經(jīng)濟(jì)活動(dòng)，但這種影響將從第二季度開始減弱。
