The report suggests thatBy mid-2024, global inflation levels have decreased enough to prompt central banks to cut interest rates. Lower inflation will increase real household income and stimulate consumer spending, while lower interest rates will increase investment spending for businesses. The report also warns that as central banks around the world lower interest rates, monetary policy divergence among major economies may lead to financial instability and a shift in capital flows.
