The global economy is under severe stress and the level of uncertainty is high and rising – the continued impact of the pandemic, the fallout from the Ukraine war particularly on food and energy markets, the major power rivalry that is prompting realignment of supply chains and trade patterns, the new normal of high inflation, the prospect of recession, and the mounting disruptions from climate change. What is the outlook for the global economy – and how are businesses and investors coping in this complex and risk-filled environment? This panel will examine both the macro picture and the situation on the ground, focusing on the opportunities and challenges for economies in different regions in a geopolitically complicated world.
