Republic of Korea: 2024 Article IV Consultation-Press Release; Staff Report; and Statement by the Executive Director for the Republic of Korea
The Korean economy has remained resilient against multiple shocks. Economic growth has recovered, inflation has steadily declined, and financial stability risks have decreased. However, downside risks have increased amid high uncertainty from policy shifts in major trading partners and recent domestic political developments. Key medium-term challenges are to boost the growth potential amidst rapid population aging, and to adapt to shifting trade patterns, transformative technological change, and climate vulnerabilities.
