Recovery paths will continue to diverge in developing Asia
The Asian Development Outlook (ADO) 2021 Update expects the regional economy to expand at a slower rate than projected in ADO 2021 in April. While growth forecasts are raised for East Asia and Central Asia, downward revisions for the rest of the region weigh on the outlook. The recovery in global demand for exports from developing Asia, supported by robust growth in advanced economies, will continue to benefit the region’s export-oriented economies. But the recovery momentum has weakened in economies battling renewed waves of COVID-19.
