The world economy is not growing as fast as many experts had hoped.(21)The International Monetary Fund recently announced it was changing its prediction for future economic activity. The IMF now says it expects the world economy to grow only a little over 3 percent in 2013, that is down from an earlier prediction of 3. 3 percent.(22)The IMF blamed the slower growth in part on what it called "continuing growth disappointments" in developing countries, and a deeper than expected recession in Europe.
