The war in Ukraine, lockdowns in China, and rising consumer prices are threatening to push the global economy to the brink of a recession. That's according to the International Monetary Fund's updated World Economic Outlook released this week. According to the lender, global economic growth will slow this year to 3.2%. It's a downgrade from the Fund's projection in April, and much lower than last year's expansion of more than 6%.

For more on global economy, we spoke to David Madden, who is a market analyst at Equiti Capital in London.
