2023 started with encouraging economic growth, notably in consumer-focused services including travel, and tourism, however, recent Purchasing Managers Index® (PMI) data indicates that this tailwind is fading. The elevated cost of living and high interest rates are taking a toll, dampening the economies of Europe and, to a lesser extent, the US. Our economists will explore the business impacts on economies and sectors over the short term, as well as the macroeconomic outlook for a recession, inflation, and implications for central bank policy in the long term. With geopolitical tensions heightening, energy transition concerns, and emerging technological trends also impacting supply chains, our economists use industry data to illustrate what is driving growth across countries and industries to help you prepare for today, and tomorrow.
