IMF Predicts Inflation Decline by 2025

According to Cointelegraph, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) expects global inflation to decrease to 3.5% by the end of 2025, following a peak of 9.4% in Q3 2022. IMF Chief Economist Pierre-Olivier Gourinchas noted that inflation in many countries is aligning with central bank targets, contributing to a resilient global economy, with growth projected at 3.2% for 2024 and 2025.

Lower inflation could lead to reduced living costs and interest rates, potentially benefiting risk assets like cryptocurrencies. However, uncertainties remain due to geopolitical tensions and the upcoming U.S. Presidential election. The IMF report calls for a "policy triple pivot" focusing on interest rates, government spending, and productivity reforms to ensure economic stability.
