OECD
As of mid-2026, the OECD has updated its global economic outlook, moderating growth forecasts due to persistent inflationary pressures and tightening monetary policies among member states. The main driver remains ongoing geopolitical tensions disrupting supply chains and energy markets. An important risk is the potential for further escalation in trade disputes which could dampen investment and trade volumes, constraining the recovery momentum. Policy coordination challenges among members complicate joint responses to inflation and climate transition risks.

OECD negotiations in mid-2026 have centered on advancing the implementation framework for Pillar Two global minimum tax rules amid mixed compliance by member states and G20 partners. The latest ministerial discussions highlighted ongoing challenges in reconciling tax base definitions and addressing carve-outs for transitional arrangements. Key drivers include rising geopolitical tensions and pushback from certain jurisdictions concerned about sovereignty and revenue impacts. Uncertainty remains around the timeline for full adoption and enforcement, which may delay the broader global tax reform benefits.
