The International Monetary Fund confirmed the forecast for real GDP growth in Ukraine to 2.0%. This is stated in the updated report of the World Economic Outlook (WEO) Foundation, which was presented on Tuesday in Washington by IMF Chief Economist Pierre-Olivier Gorinchas, Ukrinform reports.. It is noted that the section on forecasts for European economies of the WEO report indicates that real GDP growth in Ukraine will reach 2.0% in 2025 and 4.5% in 2026. This repeats the figures presented in the April World Economic Outlook, except that in the latest calculations the Fund reduced Ukraine's GDP figure for last year - from 3.5% to 2.9%.. In addition, the dynamics of the consumer price index in Ukraine has largely remained unchanged with a forecast of 12.6 this year and 7.6 next year (in the previous WEO the indicator for this year was the same, and for 2026 it was 7.7). The projected indicators of the current account balance in Ukraine have changed significantly - to minus 16.5 this year and minus 12.6 next year - compared to calculations in April to minus 15.9 and minus 10.6, respectively.. The IMF also envisages a slight increase in the unemployment rate in Ukraine, which will rise from 11.5 to 11.6 this year and remain at 10.2 in 2026. Let us remind you that global economic growth will slow down from 3.3% in 2024 to 3.2% in 2025 and 3.1% in 2026.
