The IMF’s latest estimates show a 1.6-percentage-point growth gap between advanced and emerging economies in 2026.
IMF October 2026 World Economic Outlook · 2026 projected real GDP growth
| Economy group | Growth |
| World | 3.1% |
| Advanced economies | 2.1% |
| Emerging and developing economies | 3.7% |
| Emerging and developing Asia | 5.1% |
| Euro area | 1.1% |
| Sub-Saharan Africa | 4.5% |

Emerging and developing economies are projected to grow faster than advanced economies in 2026. But the groups differ substantially in economic composition and individual country performance.
The 3.7% emerging-market growth projection exceeds the 2.1% advanced-economy figure by 1.6 percentage points.
That is a difference in growth rates, not a measure of relative prosperity or absolute economic output.
The broader implication is straightforward: global growth is continuing, but its momentum is far from evenly distributed.
The nine145 number: 1.6 percentage points — the projected advanced-versus-emerging growth gap in 2026.
| IMF economic group | 2026 GDP growth forecast |
|---|---|

| Advanced economies | 2.1% |
| Emerging/developing economies | 3.7% |
| Emerging/developing Asia | 5.1% |
| Euro area | 1.1% |
| Sub-Saharan Africa | 4.5% |
These values are annual growth rates, not total GDP or measures of living standards.
