IMF Warns of Broad Global Impact, Due to Conflict in the Middle East.
According to 'The Guardian,' the International Monetary
Fund recently highlighted the risks of escalating
conflict in the Middle East with two new reports. .
The reports, titled World Economic Outlook (WEO) and the Global Financial Stability Review (GFSR), comes amid heightened fears of a war between Iran and Israel.
The IMF reports that the escalating conflict comes at a time when financial markets have remained optimistic of a soft landing for the global economy.

That soft landing, which would include lowering inflation, receding interest rates and would avoid a potential recession, could be threatened by the outbreak of war.

'The Guardian' reports that previous Middle East conflicts have resulted in significantly higher oil prices. .
Pierre-Olivier Gourinchas, the IMF’s economic
counsellor, said the organization was evaluating the
potential for another commodity shock from the conflict.
The increased inflation that would
come from higher energy prices would
trigger a response from central banks that
would tighten interest rates in order to
secure inflation coming back to target,
and that would weigh down on activity, Pierre-Olivier Gourinchas, IMF economic counsellor, via 'The Guardian'.

It would do so in a context in which,
in some countries, activity and growth
is already fairly weak, so that might
also have a strong effect there, Pierre-Olivier Gourinchas, IMF economic counsellor, via 'The Guardian'.
According to Gourinchas, the impact of a 15% increase
in the price of oil, combined with higher shipping costs,
could result in a 0.7% increase in global inflation.

business confidence and global investment.

The IMF team, led by Nathan Porter, expressed dismay at Pakistan's finance ministry for prematurely claiming fulfillment of structural benchmarks. Before completing their review, the team arrived to analyze economic data. The ministry's premature announcement left the IMF unable to provide feedback. Pakistan's finance minister assured such incidents wouldn't recur. Discussions continue for the release of the last $1.1 billion tranche, with speculation of a potential mini-budget to boost revenues.
