Global and Domestic Challenges Weigh on Outlook for Turkish Economy in 2022
February 25, 2022--Turkey's economy is likely to expand at a much slower pace this year as rising domestic macroeconomic and financial challenges moderate growth in 2022 following an unexpectedly strong economic growth in 2021, says the latest edition of the World Bank's Turkey Economic Monitor report, released today.
Frequent changes in the monetary policy setting, epitomized by a series of interest rate cuts since last September, sent the Lira dropping to historic lows and inflation soaring to record highs. While exports boomed in 2021, these challenges have eroded real incomes for the poorer households. The COVID-19 pandemic added to the problem, and negatively impacted poverty reduction.

IMF Country Focus-UK Economy Rebounding Amid Growing Inflationary Pressures
February 23, 2022--Thanks to a rapid vaccination campaign and highly accommodative policies, the United Kingdom's economic recovery has proceeded faster than expected. The near-term growth outlook remains strong-but so too are inflationary pressures.
Monetary policy will need to tighten steadily to anchor inflation expectations and bring inflation back to target.
Careful communication to counter expectations of a long cycle of rate hikes and high borrowing costs would help reduce the drag on growth in 2023. Fiscal policy could support this tightening cycle if planned consolidation was brought forward slightly.
