Europe's economic landscape experiences a delicate balance.
The year started strong with most of Europe's top banks reporting higher profits in the first quarter as the benefits from high interest rates remained steady in the first months of the year.
However, the recent 'flash' PMI® survey data from S&P Global Market Intelligence indicates a cooling in economic growth, particularly in manufacturing, defying consensus expectations of a further acceleration in growth.
Strengthen your position with insightful analysis, forecasts and discussions at the 8th Annual European Perspectives Seminar.
Hear from leading industry experts on their views of the current landscape, bolster your network and discover the latest trends and data to help you harness opportunities and accelerate growth.
