7:03 pm
modestly next year. by contrast, emerging market and developing economies are already pushing ahead in many cases with your and growth accelerating to 4.5 percent this year from 2.8 percent last year. the recent banking instability reminds us, however, that a situation remains fragile. once again, downside risks dominate. connie la maya is the chairman and chief economist at l. b . the asset management and she joined us now live from bun in switzerland, aconia that we were speaking to an economist, an hour ago. set up the i m f has been far too gloomy here. what say you well, i actually don't think they're too gloomy, because if i look at the inflation pressures, they're not going to go away. maybe for some of the c p i. if energy prices should they come down, who prices should they come down? consumer price index,
7:04 pm
it can go down. but back to car inflation on denise this very much impacted by the global supply chain goes. so i'm not, i don't think so because, and what happens is because of that and because the mandate of central banks in the us, in europe and in and i'm them and they'll swear which is to keep inflation at 2 percent. they had to raise interest rates and high interest rates don't help economic growth. and worse than that for emerging economies, they mean that will heavily in debt. did that mean that that, that the burden of payments is going off the m f corner. it wasn't exactly a beat about the prospects for the global economy before. what happened to silicon valley bank and credit suisse? is it fair to say that the b r m f, has been spooked by the specter of the 2008 financial crisis here? what i think you have been, i don't think they have been to see that they're undercurrents, and you know,
7:05 pm
the silicon valley bank was caught on, on the, on the interest rate prices. so their clients will call from the interest rate price is pretty sweet. what was different? it was a classic sort of bank ground lots of lots of confidence. but if you look at it is, could you please have not been safe? we might well have ended up in a scenario of a 2000 a day financial crisis because the fact was systemically so important, the global and global financial system. and in switzerland we would easily have looked at 2 decades of recession. so yes, not all is, well, we need to be careful in how we navigate this trick. tricky situation. the i'm f, a course in the past has been a champion of globalization. it's now warning and this report of d, globalization. what does it mean by that? well, yes, because you see, you see that, you see, we see the building of blogs, you know, the china, russia versus the u. s. did,
7:06 pm
that's one thing. but we also see the dentist, the globalization has happened before, you know, when, when you started to see china and the us not seeing eye to eye. and the reshowing the trying to reach your supply chains. it has been exacerbated by the pandemic. and you know, by the serial co, with policy, frankly, and china, which, which made people, we think how they would look at supply chains when i go to friendly. sure. we sure . or however, they want to do to, to look at it and, you know, nice asian has taken hundreds and hundreds of millions of people out of poverty. but at the same time, we may now need to see new models and a new form of globalization or regionalization. so what does this report ultimately mean for the likes of ordinary people like me and the person watching us?
7:07 pm
well, i think, i think what it actually means is we are not out of the woods when it comes to inflation and what it means that whereas the i m f says o is a vacant for c m interest rates to come down again to be time damage levels, i don't quite agree with that because as long as we have high inflation, central banks haven't the mandate that they have. they will have to keep them higher. so the higher inflows for interest rates, but we'll slower worlds that will be if you have more interest rates, you cannot take on as a company, you more reluctant to take all that and therefore grow. so we will be, we will be seeing slower growth, and i think i'm worth life was fair to say, well, we see for 5 years, maybe it's not 5 years, but certainly for the next few years and it's not, it's not gonna be plain sailing. it's always good still to cordelia. many thanks indeed, cordelia. mile there in van. thank you very much. a good air attacks in man might
