This issue of OECD's twice-yearly OECD Economic Outlook provides analysis of recent economic developments and economic projections for OECD and major non-OECD countries through the end of 2008. Its comprehensive statistical annex is a useful reference tool for international economic comparisons. Two special reports are included: one covers the effects of globalisation and how to maximise its benefits and minimise its adjustment costs. The second covers fiscal consolidation.

Real GDP growth in 2007 is likely to remain close to the levels of 2005–06, before moderating in 2008 as the impulse from recent terms-of-trade improvements dissipates. Growth will still be primarily consumption-driven, but the contribution of fixed investment to growth should increase. Inflation is likely to fall further, owing mainly to shrinking external surpluses, further de-dollarisation and slower growth of utilities tariffs and other regulated prices.
