IMF's warning of global economic uncertainty

Speaking at the meeting, IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva said trade tension is one of the main risks to the global economy, along with Brexit risks and growing tensions in the Middle East . She also said her organisation's economists expected slower growth in nearly 90% of the global economy this year.

To solve this problem, one of the proposed solutions is WTO reform. A stronger trading system is expected to curb current and future challenges and support global growth.
