# IMF Raises 2026 Global Growth Forecast to 3.1%

*International Monetary Fund cites AI investment offsetting Middle East conflict drag.*

- Trust 86 of 100, higher is better. Multiple independent full reports name IMF officials and cite the World Economic Outlook, giving specific figures.
- Craft 95 of 100, higher is better. Reports explain AI impact, quote Georgieva and Tenreyro, and provide detailed figures and context.
- Hype 15 of 100, lower is better. Language is measured; headlines match the modest revisions reported.

**The short version**

- The IMF raised its 2026 global growth forecast by 0.1 percentage points to 3.1%.
- Global headline inflation is projected to rise to 4.7% in 2026.
- Investment in artificial intelligence is offsetting economic drag from the Middle East conflict, according to the IMF.
- Growth in advanced economies is forecast to reach 2.1% in 2026.

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has increased its forecast for global economic growth in 2026 to 3.1%, a 0.1 percentage point rise from its previous projection. The organisation also anticipates global headline inflation to reach 4.7% in 2026. The IMF stated that investment in artificial intelligence is helping to counteract the economic slowdown caused by the conflict in the Middle East.

The IMF's World Economic Outlook report projects global growth to slow from 3.5% in 2025 to 3.1% in 2026, before picking up to 3.4% in 2027. Growth in advanced economies is expected to be 2.1% in 2026, while emerging market and developing economies are forecast to grow at 3.7% in 2026. The report noted that growth is increasingly concentrated, with 32 countries accounting for 95% of global growth.

## Disagreement on growth figures

While most reports agree on the IMF's 3.1% global growth forecast for 2026, one digest from fakti.bg stated the IMF raised its forecast for global economic growth in 2027 from 3.2% to 3.4%, while maintaining its expectation for growth of 3.1% in 2026.

## What the coverage left out

None of the left-rated digests mention the IMF's projection that oil prices are expected to be up nearly 41% this year, at an average of $96 a barrel, as reported by Washington Top News. None of the right-rated digests mention the IMF's projection that growth in advanced economies is forecast to reach 2.1% in 2026, as reported by CGTN and Washington Top News.

## Who covered it

Shares of the 32 covering outlets with a published leaning rating:

- Left: 53% (17)
- Centre: 31% (10)
- Right: 16% (5)

23 of 55 covering outlets carried no usable leaning rating and were excluded from those percentages. Coverage measured 2026-10-13T05:45:09.737813+00:00.

**Coverage watch:** developing. Checked 6 times; 1 check found a material change. Most recently checked 2026-10-13T06:30:12.402Z.

## How the sides framed it

### Left

- Nine of the 13 left-rated reports focused on the IMF's revised global growth forecast for 2026, stating it was raised to 3.1%. These reports also highlighted the IMF's projection that AI investment is offsetting the economic drag from the Middle East conflict. CGTN, The Independent, and The Seattle Times were among those that led with these points. The Hindu noted the IMF's 'resilience' to shocks as a reason for the forecast increase.

### Centre

- All seven centre-rated reports highlighted the IMF's raised 2026 global growth forecast of 3.1%. Washington Top News, France24, and Radio France Internationale noted the IMF's warning of a 'split' outlook and that growth is increasingly concentrated. France24 and Radio France Internationale also mentioned that many advanced economies have been benefiting from AI.

### Right

- The four right-rated reports led with the IMF's revised global growth forecast for 2026, stating it was raised to 3.1%. Globo's digest mentioned that the IMF sees a 'concentrated gain with AI'. Interfax.ru's digest noted the global economy's 'sustainability' but also its unevenness across regions and countries. Yonhap News Agency's digest stated the IMF raised the forecast, adding 'Stimulate Demand with AI Investment'.

**Provisional coverage gap:** right. The watch is not closed, so this is not yet a settled blindspot finding.
