ADB - Developing Asia’s Economic Outlook: Asian Development Outlook (ADO) April 2024
- Economic growth in developing Asia continues to be resilient.
- ADB forecasts 4.9% growth for the region this year and next year.
- Growth in developing Asia is being driven by robust domestic demand, improving semiconductor exports, and a continued recovery in tourism.
- Inflation in developing Asia is expected to decline to 3.2% this year and 3.0% next year, as interest rate hiking cycles have peaked.
"We see strong, stable growth for the majority of economies in developing Asia this year and next. Consumer confidence is improving, and investment is resilient overall. External demand also appears to be turning a corner, particularly with regard to semiconductors." Albert Park, ADB Chief Economist
