Swedbank Economic Outlook

"Global growth has proven resilient amid continued turmoil in the Middle East. Oil prices have eased from their recent highs, but volatility persists and uncertainty remains elevated. Hopes of normalisation in the region have repeatedly given way to renewed escalation, with successive rounds of attacks and retaliation. Looking ahead, we expect the global economy to continue its steady progress.​"

— Mattias Persson, Group Chief Economist, Swedbank

A quarterly product presenting the latest macroeconomic forecasts for Sweden, the Baltic countries and the major global economies.
