World Economic Outlook, April 2019 (French Edition)

After strong growth in 2017 and early 2018, global economic activity slowed notably in the second half of 2018. Trade tensions took a toll on business confidence and financial market sentiment worsened, with financial conditions tightening for vulnerable emerging markets in the spring of 2018 and then in advanced economies later in the year.

Dupa o crestere puternica in 2017 si inceputul anului 2018, activitatea economica globala a incetinit in special in a doua jumatate a anului 2018. Tensiunile comerciale au afectat increderea in afaceri si sentimentul pietei financiare s-a inrautatit, conditiile financiare fiind inrautatite pentru pietele emergente vulnerabile in primavara anului 2018 si apoi in economiile avansate mai tarziu in cursul anului.
