IMF Video: Global Economic Conditions and What They Mean for Inflation and Climate Policy
The IMF’s forthcoming October 2022 World Economic Outlook examines two economic forces that could impact inflation going forward. One chapter looks at wage dynamics post-COVID-19, wage-price spiral risks, and how policymakers can respond. Another chapter investigates the potential near-term effects of critical climate policies on inflation and economic activity and how they can be best designed.
After briefly summarizing the chapters, the IMF authors will discuss their findings with PIIE senior fellows Olivier Blanchard and Pinelopi Koujianou Goldberg. A Q&A with the audience will follow.

Davos Video: Special Agenda Dialogue on the Future of the Global Economy
The prospects for the global economy have dimmed according to the results of our latest survey of chief economists. Inflation surged to levels not seen in a generation in response to a combination of demand-side and supply-side factors. This in turn has triggered a sharp tightening of monetary policy in many countries, including the US, threatening to choke off global growth. Meanwhile, real wages and consumer confidence are in freefall, adding further headwinds to growth and raising the prospect of social unrest.
How can we navigate the storm without sinking the ship? Please join this briefing on the Future of the Global Economy with chief economists from different regions to hear their take on the global economic outlook.
