On Tuesday, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) released updated economic forecasts, slightly upgrading its global growth outlook for the current year while projecting a slowdown by 2027. Despite the modest upgrade, the global forecast remains at a sluggish 3.1%.
In a separate national update issued concurrently, the IMF also raised South Korea's economic growth forecast for the year to 3.3 percent, attributing the domestic revision to an ongoing semiconductor industry supercycle.
