OECD releases economic outlook 
OECD: 2021年中国经济将增长8.5% 

The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development said in its interim economic outlook released on Tuesday the global economy is expected to grow by 5.7 percent this year, 0.1 percentage point down from its May forecast. The unevenness of the recovery, which reflects countries' pre-COVID 19 strengths and weaknesses as well as their policy approaches during the pandemic, is worsened by large differences in vaccination rates between countries, it said.

The Chinese economy is expected to grow by 8.5 and 5.8 percent in 2021 and 2022 respectively, as in the May forecast. The United States saw its 2021 outlook revised down from 6.9 percent in May to 6.0 percent. But the forecast for 2022 is upgraded to 3.9 percent from 3.6 percent in May.
