A New Global Economy
Following a sequence of unprecedented events, the global economy is stabilizing, with projections of 3.1% growth in 2024 alongside other positive trends in economic indicators. The profound transformations brought on by recent crises have seen a shift towards new growth models. Increasingly governments are playing an active role in shaping economic and industrial policies, prioritizing key growth areas, such as technology and green industries, to ensure competitiveness. Leaders will need to navigate pressing challenges to promote sustainable and inclusive global growth. While in 2024 trade stands to benefit from economic growth and headline inflation is expected to fall, geo-economic competition and fragmentation continue to pose challenges and underlying inflation will need to be managed through sound and coordinated monetary policy.
