Rising household debt, fluctuating FII flows among risks that threaten to amplify economic fragility: Report

- Rhik Kundu

The economic outlook for calendar year 2025 remains cautious, with many of the risks from the last year expected to escalate, leading to heightened volatility, according to SBICAPS.

Fresh structural shifts, such as rising currency volatility and the diversification of global supply chains, are unfolding against a backdrop of ongoing trade wars, geopolitical upheavals, and political transitions, while emerging risks—rising household debt, fluctuating FII flows, and global financial tightening—threaten to amplify economic fragility, SBICAPS said in its monthly EcoCapsule Report for January released on Tuesday.

"For India, navigating this storm will demand a nimble and cautious strategy," it said.
