Adviser to Prime Minister on Finance Miftah Ismail leaves for Washington to attend spring meetings of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank a few days before the last federal budget of the PML-N government to be announced on April 27. Higher barriers to trade and lower foreign direct investment following Brexit next year would prevent Britain from performing better, it said.
The International Monetary Fund has revised its economic growth forecast for the Czech Republic in 2018 from a projected 2.6 percent in the fall of previous year to 3.5 percent of the GDP.
It urged nations to use a "window of opportunity" to carry out reforms to boost growth rates before the current upswing - the strongest since 2010 - petered out.

"Against that positive backdrop, the prospect of a similarly broad-based conflict over trade presents a jarring picture", Maurice Obstfeld, IMF's Economic Counsellor and Director of the Research Department, said in remarks accompanying the outlook. "These developments have created room for monetary policy to support activity should downside risks to growth materialize", it said, at a time most analysts believe a long pause from the Reserve Bank of India on policy rates.
Rather than lower the trade deficit, as Trump has called for, the United States trade actions could expand it by $150 billion by 2019, he said.
