World Bank: Global economy more resilient than expected, income gap widens between poor and rich countries

Recently, the World Bank pointed out in its latest "Global Economic Outlook" report that despite ongoing trade tensions and policy uncertainties, the resilience of the global economy still exceeds expectations. It is expected that the global growth rate will remain relatively stable in the next two years, decreasing to 2.6% in 2026 and rising to 2.7% in 2027, slightly higher than the forecast in June of last year. The per capita income growth rate of developing economies is expected to be 3% in 2026, about 1 percentage point lower than the average level of 2000-2019. At this rate, the per capita income of developing economies will only reach 12% of that of developed economies.
