Economic Update
IFM Investors Chief Economist Dr Alex Joiner comments on the latest global economic news and trends.

In Australia, the economy is delivering reasonable growth, but not enough to accelerate wages growth or inflation. Looking ahead, the synchronicity in global economic growth over recent years looks set to diverge as central banks progressively unwind accommodative monetary policies.
