he world economy is weathering the shock of the war in the Middle East with no signs yet of a global slowdown, but risks remain high, International Monetary Fund chief Kristalina Georgieva said on Monday.
Georgieva, who will brief G7 leaders on the global economy at a summit in France this week, welcomed the agreement by the U.S. and Iran on Sunday to end their war and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, but warned in a new blog that an intensification of the conflict and supply disruptions posed a "clear risk to global growth."
