How the IMF's 2026 forecasts have changed, country by country
The IMF publishes its World Economic Outlook twice a year and each round restates the forecast for 2026. This table compares, for every country, the first stored round that projected 2026 with the latest stored round, and the latest round with the one before it. 190 countries, 1048 series, rounds from April 2021 to April 2026. A missing estimate is left out, never counted as zero, and a country appears only where at least two rounds carry a value.

What this measures, and what it does not
Each value is the IMF's own published estimate for 2026as it stood in that publication round, from the stored World Economic Outlook rounds on this site. “Change since first” is the latest stored round minus the earliest stored round that projected 2026; “change since previous” is the latest round minus the one immediately before it. Rates are compared in percentage points. GDP in current US dollars is compared in billions.
The archive holds the rounds that have been stored, not every edition the IMF has ever published, and interim updates that revise only a subset of economies are not separate rounds here. A country whose first stored round is recent has a short history and a small “since first” change by construction. This is a record of revisions, not a judgement of forecast accuracy: a large revision can reflect a genuine shock as easily as an error.
Per-country detail, including every subject and every stored round: the stored IMF outlook seriesand each country's forecast page. Official forecasts from the OECD, World Bank and Federal Reserve alongside the IMF: consensus forecasts. The stored rounds are available through the API; see the API documentation.
