> The OECD’s interim outlook projects global growth of 2.9% in 2026 and 3.0% in 2027, with G20 growth broadly stable. G20 headline inflation is expected to reach 4.1% in 2026 before easing. The OECD warned that Middle East conflict, disruptions through the Strait of Hormuz or Bab al-Mandeb, and damage to energy facilities could drive prices higher and cause commodity shortages.
