The EU sharply cut its eurozone growth forecast for 2024, Commissioner for the Economy Paolo Gentiloni says. Gentiloni says the European Commission predicts the single-currency economic area to grow by 0.8 percent in 2024, down from a previous forecast of 1.2 percent. SOUNDBITE
Britain's economy will rebound this year and not shrink as initially thought, but will grow far less than expected next year, finance minister Jeremy Hunt says as he presents his Autumn Statement to parliament. Gross domestic product will expand 0.6 percent in 2023, Hunt said citing the Office for Budget Responsibility fiscal watchdog, upgrading its prior forecast of minus 0.2 percent. GDP is then set to grow by 0.7 percent in 2024, which was sharply down from previous guidance for a 1.8-percent expansion. SOUNDBITE
