The economic outlook for the global economy remains positive, but risks of a correction have increased sharply as a result of increasing trade tensions. Geopolitical risks and vulnerabilities in various emerging economies are also worrying.

Global economic growth accelerates mildly in 2018. But the hardening of US trade policy increases the risk of escalation in trade relationships. This would seriously damage the US economy and cause a setback in the recovery of world trade growth.
Economic Quarterly Report Dutch version
Global economic growth accelerates this and next year. Though for many central banks their inflation target remains out of reach. As such, monetary policy normalisation is not yet on the cards, while it is needed to structurally lift economic growth.

We expect moderate global economic growth of around 3 per cent in 2017 and 2018. American protectionism will expectedly have a negative effect on world trade growth. Political developments in the US and Europe constitute the biggest source of uncertainty.
