Macro - Weekly Briefings - United Kingdom
This week's data offered very mixed signals on the pace of UK activity growth. Retail sales rose again in March, but the composite PMI plunged in April. In our view, both measures are deeply flawed. The retail data appears to suffer from seasonal adjustment problems, while the results of the S&a ... Read More

Macro - Weekly Briefings - Emerging Markets
We’ve cut our aggregate 2025 GDP growth forecast for EMs by 0.4ppts to 3.7% owing to the adverse impact of recently announced US tariffs on world trade. We've also lowered our EM growth forecast for 2026 by 0.2ppts to 3.7% to reflect a permanently weaker path for global trade, as well as reduced ... Read More

Analysis by Region - Emerging Markets - Sierra Leone
Declining global iron ore prices, slower mining production, weak governance and high inflation weakened Sierra Leone's economic growth in 2024. Furthermore, weak domestic demand and threats to global trade activity are key short-term risks. The country's agricultural sector also remains expo ... Read More

Macro - Weekly Briefings - US
Front-loading ahead of tariffs will create a lot of volatility in the economic data released next week. There are mounting signs in the forward-looking data that a crunch in activity is coming. That helps to explain some of the moderation in the language on tariffs from the administration, suggestin ... Read More
-
Analysis by Region - Asia Pacific - Singapore
We've slashed our 2025 GDP growth forecast for Singapore by 1.2ppts to 1.6%. This is partly due to US trade policy-induced disruptions to the global economy, but mainly reflects weaker than expected activity in Q1. Although momentum should rebound in Q2, it will remain subdued. This leaves the p ... Read More
-
Analysis by Region - Emerging Markets - Niger
Despite the closed Beninese-Nigerien border, Niger continues to transport oil to international markets. On February 24 this year, the government said it had successfully shipped 14.1 million barrels of oil through the 2,000-km pipeline that connects the Agadem oilfield in Niger with the Beninese Por ...

-
Analysis by Region - Emerging Markets - Madagascar
Economic momentum picked up in 2024, but we expect economic activity to ease this year amid global tariff uncertainty. At the beginning of April, the US slapped Madagascar with 47% import tariffs but has since suspended these harsh tariffs for 90 days and replaced them with a 10% import tariff. Yet, ... Read More
-
Analysis by Region - Emerging Markets - Vietnam
We've lowered our forecasts for Vietnam's GDP growth by 0.7ppts to 6.2% y/y in 2025 and by 0.4ppts to 6.2% in 2026. Growth prospects have been downgraded due mainly to tariff-related concerns. Closer Chinese cooperation shouldn't fully offset these headwinds, too. Still, upside risks to ... Read More
-
Macro - Country Economic Forecasts - Lithuania
Our real GDP growth forecast remains unchanged at 3% y/y for 2025. Growth in 2024 slightly exceeded expectations at 2.7%, supported by a strong Q4 performance driven by resilient consumer spending and a rebound in fixed investment, following two consecutive quarters of contraction. We think that str ... Read More
-
Macro - Country Economic Forecasts - United Arab Emirates
We forecast UAE GDP growth at 4.7% in 2025, supported by the expected easing of OPEC+ production cuts from May. Non-oil momentum remains positive but is softening, with the March PMI slipping to 54 from 55. Rising cost pressures, weaker global demand, and increased uncertainty arising from the US ta ...

-
Macro - Country Economic Forecasts - Netherlands
We forecast the Dutch economy will grow by 1.2% this year and 0.6% next. Trade uncertainty will make businesses reluctant to invest. Not only will tariffs lower the Netherlands' direct exports to the US by making them dearer, but they will also hit demand for Dutch-produced inputs into other cou ... Read More
-
Analysis by Region - Emerging Markets - Guinea
Guinea's real GDP growth rate for 2023 was lowered to 6.7% (previously 7.1%). As a result, we now estimate that the Guinean economy expanded by 5.1% in 2024 – down from our previous estimate of 5.4%. Moreover, we have trimmed our medium-term real GDP growth forecasts slightly as President Donald ... Read More
-
Macro - Country Economic Forecasts - Eurozone
We've lowered our Eurozone GDP growth forecasts by 0.1ppt to 0.8% in 2025 and 0.2ppts to 1% in 2026 in response to the US tariff hikes. Although our assumptions about US-EU tariffs have not materially changed, new US tariffs will weaken demand for Eurozone exports and will result in a prolonged ... Read More
-
Analysis by Region - MENA
We have trimmed our 2025 GDP growth forecast for Turkey by 0.1ppt to 2.8% given headwinds to export and investment dynamics from the global tariff uncertainty and domestic political crackdown. Although incoming data show a stronger Q1 than we expected a month ago, this is countered by downward revis ... Read More
-
Analysis by Region - Africa - Algeria
Global volatility and uncertainty have heightened, and oil producers will likely be worse off. International capital and commodity markets were shaken when US President Donald Trump announced extremely severe reciprocal tariffs on April 2. Algerian companies were poised to pay a 30% tariff on goods ... Read More

Macro - Weekly Briefings - US
March retail sales showed consumers are acting rationally by front-loading spending, particularly on vehicles. The Manheim used vehicle price index has resumed rising. The Manheim index generally leads consumer prices by two months. Our April forecast is that tariff induced inflation peaks midyear a ... Read More
-
Macro - Weekly Briefings - United Kingdom
This week's labour market and inflation releases reported continued stickiness in the Bank of England's favoured measure of inflation and in pay growth. Evidence on the likely impact of this month's national insurance and national living wage rises has been mixed. Redundancy notification ... Read More
-
Macro - Country Economic Forecasts - Denmark
We've slashed our 2025 GDP growth forecast for Denmark by 1.4ppts to 1.8%. We assume that the US government will impose a 25% tariff on its imports of pharmaceuticals in late Q2, which will significantly affect Denmark's growth outlook due to the importance of pharmaceutical production for t ... Read More
-
Macro - Country Economic Forecasts - Spain
We have raised our 2025 GDP growth forecast for Spain by 0.1ppt to 2.7% amid indications that economic activity remains strong despite the adverse global environment. Spain stands to be relatively more insulated from the current trade war with the US than other European countries, and activity will ... Read More
-
Macro - Weekly Briefings - Eurozone
The flurry of recent tariff announcements and reversals from the US has continued to affect leading indicators in the Eurozone, with the ZEW sinking this week at a rate consistent with large crises. Together with abysmal soft data from the US, this highlights the corrosive impact of policy uncertain ... Read More
-
Macro - Country Economic Forecasts - Germany
We left our near-term forecasts unchanged this month at 0% GDP growth for this year and 0.9% in 2026, with inflation at 2.1% in 2025 and 1.8% in 2026. This stability reflects the positive effects of the initial impact from Germany's fiscal sea change offset by the weaker and more uncertain globa ... Read More
-
Macro - Country Economic Forecasts - Greece
The US administration's erratic trade policy prompts a downward revision of our GDP growth forecast for Greece. This primarily reflects reduced goods exports and fixed investment, as tariff-related uncertainty persuades firms to delay investment projects. ... Read More
-
Macro - Country Economic Forecasts - Canada
We've cut our GDP forecasts for Canada by 0.4ppts to 0.7% growth in 2025 and by 0.1ppt to a 0.2% contraction in 2026. Despite lower US-Canada tariffs, we expect Canada's recession will be deeper due to weaker global demand from higher US tariffs on the rest of the world. ... Read More
-
Analysis by Region - Emerging Markets - Peru
We have kept our GDP growth forecast for Peru unchanged at 2.6% for 2025 but cut our projection for 2026 by 0.3ppts to 2.6%. Still, we recognise downside risks to our outlook. On the domestic front, renewed social unrest triggered by rising insecurity led to strikes in the capital city during April. ... Read More
-
Macro - Country Economic Forecasts - Austria
We have cut our growth outlook for the Austrian economy by 0.1ppt and anticipate another contraction of 0.2% this year. We believe the economy will struggle to grow in the first half of the year, gradually improving towards year-end. US tariffs on EU goods, particularly the 25% tariffs on cars, pose ... Read More
