GREATER GROWTH OF ECONOMIES

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has raised its growth forecast for Spain to 2.3% from 2.2% in 2017. The monetary agency has also revised upwards the growth of advanced economies because it expects an impact of the Donald Trump Administration's economic policies in the United States.
