Global inflation rises in 2027
A report from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) expects global inflation to remain high throughout 2027 due to ongoing energy price shocks and strong demand, which could prompt major central banks to continue raising interest rates. The organization has upgraded its forecasts for consumer price growth across all G20 economies except China and Saudi Arabia, warning that rising inflationary pressures may necessitate further monetary tightening. The Federal Reserve is anticipated to raise interest rates once more before the end of the year, and we are maintaining a policy of tightening in Europe, Australia, and South Korea, with some banks continuing to hold rates steady. Despite persistent inflation pressures, the organization does not expect central banks to repeat the sharp increases seen after 2022, noting that the global economy still has momentum but faces risks from sustained inflation, energy price volatility, and trade and financial tensions, which could require prolonged restrictive policies.
