London: In-person event
The World in 2025
Risk and opportunity in a new economic and political landscape
Wednesday 4th December
Myo St Pauls, Watling St, London EC4M 9AF
How will the US election shape the US and global economy in 2025? When and where will central bank easing cycles stop? Is China set to see a sustained economic and market recovery?
After hitting a soft patch in the final months of this year, we think global economic growth will reaccelerate in 2025. But the US election outcome and conflict in the Middle East are just some of the critical uncertainties that investors may have to grapple as the new year arrives.
Prepare for the coming year by joining our senior economist team for this special briefing all about the key risks and opportunities for macro and markets in 2025. This event is your opportunity to find out what’s on our radar screens for the year ahead, to meet the team and get your questions answered, and to network with peers from your industry.
During the briefing, the team will outline the themes to watch in the coming year, including:
- What the US election outcome could mean for US growth and inflation – but also how the White House’s next resident could shape the global trade picture;
- Which economies will do best in 2025, which will struggle, and how central banks will respond to shifting growth-inflation dynamics;
- Risks around Germany’s election, its stalled economy and the future of Europe;
- Whether global equities will continue rallying into 2025 – and what policy easing will mean for the outlook for bond yields.
