Description
APEC GDP growth in 2023 outpaced both the global growth and the region's year-ago growth. In the near-term, APEC is expected to continue to grow but at a moderated pace, reflecting uncertainties stemming from trade protectionism, persistent inflationary pressures, and geopolitical tensions. In the face of global uncertainties and volatile commodity markets, prioritizing enhanced multilateral cooperation stands as an imperative. Fostering collective action to keep trade open, ensure global stability, and address complex and multiple challenges will fortify APEC economies against prevailing headwinds that threaten to diminish the gains made post-pandemic.
