Speakers:
The World in 2026 is our definitive guide to the global economy and markets in the year ahead. In this special in-person briefing held onTuesday 2 December, a panel of our senior economists set out what they see as the key forces shaping developed and emerging economies in 2026 and explained how these trends will feed through to market outcomes.
The event included plenty of questions from clients and informal discussion between industry peers, with topics including:
-
Whether AI will keep lifting the US economy and markets – and which other regions stand to benefit from the technology;
-
How US-China geoeconomic competition will continue to shape the global outlook in 2026;
-
Whether inflation is under control, and how much further the global monetary easing cycle has to run.
