Launch of the ASEAN+3 Regional Economic Outlook 2026 Report

Join us for the launch of the ASEAN+3 Regional Economic Outlook (AREO) 2026 report on Monday, April 6, at 10:30am (Singapore time).

Despite major global shocks, the ASEAN+3 region—comprising members of ASEAN, China; Hong Kong, China; Japan; and Korea—has remained resilient. But can it withstand renewed pressures from the Middle East tensions and US trade policies?

The latest AREO report explores the prospects and challenges that lie ahead, providing exclusive insights into:

  • Growth and inflation forecasts for 2026 and 2027
  • Key near-term risks and policy priorities
  • The transformation of regional economic linkages over the past two decades, including value chains and the intra-regional demand

The press conference will open with remarks by AMRO Director/CEO Yasuto Watanabe, followed by remarks from Chief Economist Dong He, a presentation by Group Head & Principal Economist Allen Ng, and a live Q&A session.

Tune in to our livestream and be part of the conversation on strengthening macroeconomic and financial resilience and stability across the ASEAN+3 region.
