Combined with rating upgrades and commodity‑price tailwinds, de‑listing can produce a short‑to‑medium‑term economic rebound even without new fiscal policy changes. — This links a discrete institutional decision (FATF delisting) to tangible economic outcomes, highlighting how global governance signals affect national finance and livelihoods.
