国际货币基金组织（IMF）将柬埔寨2026年经济增长预期下调

[来源: CIR] [分类提示: NEWS] 标题: IMF Sees Cambodia Growth Slowing to 3% and Inflation Reaching 5.6% in 2026 as Property and Banking Risks Mount Cambodia Investment Review Cambodia’s economy is expected to grow 3% in 2026, down from 5.3% last year, while inflation is projected to average 5.6%, the International Monetary Fund said in its latest assessment. The IMF expects growth to recover to 4% in 2027 and inflation to ease to 3.1%. It warned, however, that a prolonged property downturn, pressure on banks’ loan portfolios and potential disruptions to trade or energy supplies could make this year’s slowdown more severe. Higher energy prices initially drove inflation, but price pressures have since spread more broadly through the economy, the fund said. The assessment was released Monday after the IMF Executive Board completed its annual consultation with Cambodia on September 22. It presents a more difficult near-term outlook for an economy supported by manufacturing exports, foreign investment and infrastructure projects in 2025, even as domestic demand remained weak. Property downturn adds pressure to banks Cambodia’s prolonged real estate correction is a central concern in the IMF’s assessment. The fund said tighter financial conditions, weaker credit and deposit growth, and rising pressure on banks’ loan portfolios are weighing on activity.
