The World Economic Outlook (WEO) is a report from the International Monetary Fund that presents output, inflation, employment, budget balances and debt statistics for member countries.
The report, best known for its global growth forecasts, summarizes the state of the world economy and highlights the most important events of recent times.
The IMF publishes the WEO report twice a year based on data obtained through consultations with member governments.
The IMF also publishes two additional and less comprehensive WEOs per year, each three months after the main WEO report.
