據(jù)財經(jīng)網(wǎng)站FXstreet 5月9日報道，國際貨幣基金組織(IMF) 4月23日發(fā)表了一份報告，指出油價上漲可能會對全球通貨膨脹和經(jīng)濟增長前景產(chǎn)生影響。

報告指出：“對一些人來說，油價上漲可能會讓人想起上世紀(jì)70年代，當(dāng)時地緣政治緊張也導(dǎo)致化石燃料價格飆升。

“人們對高通脹和隨著而來的緩慢增長(即所謂的滯脹)的記憶加劇了對可能重演的擔(dān)憂。但重要的是，時代已經(jīng)改變了。

“自上世紀(jì)70年代以來，各國央行也發(fā)生了變化。如今，更多的銀行是獨立的，貨幣政策的可信度在過去幾十年里得到了廣泛加強。

“我們預(yù)計，全球增長將接近疫情發(fā)生前3.5%的平均水平，即使我們在4月份的《世界經(jīng)濟展望》下調(diào)了預(yù)測，但增速仍可能比預(yù)期放緩得多，通脹可能高于預(yù)期。

“有鑒于對能源進口相對來說更高的依賴性，歐洲可能是表現(xiàn)最為明顯的地方。”

IMF: Rising crude oil prices will worsen inflation

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) released a report on Sunday, citing the impact of rising oil prices might on inflation global inflation and growth outlook.

Key takeaways

“For some, rising oil prices may echo the 1970s when geopolitical tensions also caused fossil fuel prices to spike.”

“Memories of the high inflation and slow growth that followed—known as stagflation—have fueled concerns about a possible repeat. importantly, though, times have changed.”

“Central banks, too, have changed since the 1970s. More are independent today, and the credibility of monetary policy has broadly strengthened over the intervening decades.”

“We expect global growth to be close to the pre-pandemic average of 3.5 percent, even after our April World Economic Outlook lowered projections, but it still could slow more than forecast, and inflation could turn out higher than expected.”

“This may be most salient for parts of Europe, given their relatively higher reliance on Russian energy imports.”
