With the aim of providing a broad-based economic analysis to policy makers and stakeholders, the Economic Institute of Cambodia (EIC) has great pleasure in presenting the latest issue of 'Cambodia economic watch'. This EIC series of publications not only serves as a policy-oriented research paper, but also as a reference for all readers who wish to gain a snapshot of the Cambodian economy or monitor its development. As in previous issues, this edition presents the latest economic performance and prospects based on the analysis of current data from many reliable sources. It takes an in-depth look at the trends of the main economic indicators and the progress of reform policies. It also highlights the urgent measures that need to be taken to address any of the problems encountered. In brief, the global crisis seems to show its severe impact on Cambodia since the last quarter of 2008. Thus, Cambodia's economic growth rate slowed significantly in 2008 due to slower growth of garment industry, construction sector and tourism. These trends are likely to carry over 2009, and thus a lower economic growth rate is also expected accordantly.
Inflation is generally defined as the continued increase in the average prices of goods and services in a given region. Following the extremely high global inflation experienced in the 1980s and 1990s, global inflation has been relatively stable since the turn of the millennium, usually hovering between three and five percent per year. There was a sharp increase in 2008 due to the global financial crisis now known as the Great Recession, but inflation was fairly stable throughout the 2010s, before the current inflation crisis began in 2021. Recent years Despite the economic impact of the coronavirus pandemic, the global inflation rate fell to 3.26 percent in the pandemic's first year, before rising to 4.66 percent in 2021. This increase came as the impact of supply chain delays began to take more of an effect on consumer prices, before the Russia-Ukraine war exacerbated this further. A series of compounding issues such as rising energy and food prices, fiscal instability in the wake of the pandemic, and consumer insecurity have created a new global recession, and global inflation in 2024 is estimated to have reached 5.76 percent. This is the highest annual increase in inflation since 1996. Venezuela Venezuela is the country with the highest individual inflation rate in the world, forecast at around 200 percent in 2022. While this is figure is over 100 times larger than the global average in most years, it actually marks a decrease in Venezuela's inflation rate, which had peaked at over 65,000 percent in 2018. Between 2016 and 2021, Venezuela experienced hyperinflation due to the government's excessive spending and printing of money in an attempt to curve its already-high inflation rate, and the wave of migrants that left the country resulted in one of the largest refugee crises in recent years. In addition to its economic problems, political instability and foreign sanctions pose further long-term problems for Venezuela. While hyperinflation may be coming to an end, it remains to be seen how much of an impact this will have on the economy, how living standards will change, and how many refugees may return in the coming years.

The Politbarometer has been conducted since 1977 on an almost monthly basis by the Research Group for Elections (Forschungsgruppe Wahlen) for the Second German Television (ZDF). Since 1990, this database has also been available for the new German states. The survey focuses on the opinions and attitudes of the voting population in the Federal Republic on current political topics, parties, politicians, and voting behavior. From 1990 to 1995 and from 1999 onward, the Politbarometer surveys were conducted separately in the eastern and western federal states (Politbarometer East and Politbarometer West). The separate monthly surveys of a year are integrated into a cumulative data set that includes all surveys of a year and all variables of the respective year. The Politbarometer short surveys, collected with varying frequency throughout the year, are integrated into the annual cumulation starting from 2003.

This report evaluates the main macroeconomic and sectoral developments in Guatemala during the second half of the 1980s and identifies the main economic challenges the country will face in the 1990s. The report is intended to provide a background for discussions with the new Government of President Serrano on important macroeconomic and sector adjustment issues. Special emphasis is given to the current macroeconomic problems as evidenced by the large fiscal and external imbalances, and accelerating inflation in 1990. Therefore, the assessment of the economic prospects focuses on macroeconomic policy reform, with the central issue being a return to fiscal stability and the consolidation of economic growth without renewing inflationary pressures and external imbalances. The report also discusses the main structural measures required over the next couple of years to further liberalize the economy and to deal more effectively with the deteriorating social conditions in the country. In this context, it identifies the main components of a poverty alleviation strategy and stresses the urgent need for expanded and restructured social sector program.
As of the first quarter of 2023, 23% of people surveyed in Mexico felt optimistic regarding socio-economic issues when compared to previous years, while 32% acquired a pessimistic stance compared to previous years.

•GLA Economics has produced long-run projections of London’s employment since 2002. These projections are trend based and set out the long run path of employment considered most likely based on the historic data available at the time of construction. These are used within the GLA for planning to provide capacity to accommodate the longer-terms needs of the London economy. Given their importance to GLA policy planning, this note looks at how the GLA Economics’ employment projections have performed since 2002 and how this compares to projections from some other respected organisations. •Although GLA Economics’ employment projections are consistently below outturn, much of this is the result of upward revisions to historic employment data (which underpin the projections model). Further, the projections perform relatively well when looking at the projected annual growth rate and average annual error in relation to outturn, with the accuracy of the projections generally improving the longer the time period over which the estimates are analysed. •The revisions to historic employment data also drive much of the variability in the GLA Economics’ employment projections numbers over time. However, and by design, the revised projections are relatively consistent over time and average revisions between iterations in GLA Economics employment projections are relatively small.
