Jan 13 (Reuters) - Uncertainties around U.S. policies may slow global economic growth modestly in 2025, according to major brokerages. They expect U.S. President-elect Donald Trump's proposed tariffs to fuel volatility across global markets, spurring inflationary pressures and, in turn, limiting the scope for major central banks to ease monetary policy.

Following are forecasts from some top banks on economic growth, inflation and the performance of major asset classes in 2025:
