IMF Managing Director: US led trade war may lead to global growth slowdown but no recession risk

IMF Managing Director Georgieva pointed out in a speech before the spring meeting in Washington that the trade "reboot" and wave of protectionism driven by the United States are exacerbating global uncertainty and may lead to a slowdown in economic growth, but the world will not fall into recession. She emphasized that although some countries may face increased inflation, the overall economy remains resilient. The IMF will release its latest World Economic Outlook report on April 23rd (next Tuesday).
