World economic increase will be disappointing next year and the outlook for the medium-term has as well deteriorated, the chief of the International Monetary Fund said in a guest article for German newspaper Handelsblatt published on Wednesday.
IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde said the prospect of rising interest rates in the United States and an economic slowdown in China were contributing to uncertainty and a higher risk of economic vulnerability worldwide.
Added to that, increase in world trade has slowed considerably and a decline in raw material prices is posing problems for economies based on these, while the financial sector in a lot of nations still has weaknesses and financial risks are rising in emerging markets, she said.

The World Bank predicts Tajikistan’s economic growth to slow to an estimated 4.2 percent in 2015.
The bank said in its new bi-annual Tajikistan Economic Update that it is due to the decline in remittances from Russia, weak global demand and low prices for the country’s key export commodities such as aluminum and cotton.
This Central Asian country's economic growth was 6.7 percent in 2014.
The fall in remittances and slowdown of economic growth has had a strong impact on Tajikistan's income, which is expected to reach 10 percent in 2015.

Low oil prices will not provide a sufficient updraught to dispel the clouds hanging over the world economy, the International Monetary Fund said on Tuesday.
In a sign of its increasing gloom about the medium term economic outlook, the IMF cut its world economic increase forecasts by 0.3 % points for both 2015 and 2016, despite believing cheaper oil represents a “shot in the arm”.
