> The IMF forecasts that global output will grow more slowly, at 3.1% this year, despite geopolitical disruptions. It warns that elevated inflation and AI share valuations could threaten financial stability. The edition also reports Russia’s claim that it has exported $320 billion in oil and gas to Europe since Russia’s 2022 full-scale invasion of Ukraine, and says Dangote refinery has extended its IPO deadline by two weeks to draw more retail investors.
