The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has warned that the Iran war will leave lasting “scarring effects” on the global economy, with consequences likely to persist even if a ceasefire is reached.

Kristalina Georgieva, the organisation’s managing director, said that even the “most hopeful scenario” would involve a downgrade in global growth, adding that there would be “no neat and clean return to the status quo.”
