ADB Warns of Sustained Inflation Pressure in Asia-Pacific Through 2027
The Asian Development Bank (ADB) forecasts sustained inflation pressures in the developing Asia-Pacific region through 2027, with inflation rates of 4.2% in 2024 and 3.5% in 2025, above the 3% expected in 2026. Conflicts in Europe, the Middle East, and disruptions from El Niño are contributing to supply constraints and price increases, particularly in energy and food sectors. Economic growth is projected to slow to 5% in 2026. Several countries may tighten monetary policy if inflation persists, with potential rate cuts considered in 2027.
