Global outlook for corporates: pressure-testing 2026 macro assumptions

20 January 2026 – 3.00pm GMT (London)
online

As many corporates finalize their 2026 budgets and plans, we’ll share our latest forecasts for the global economy, key sectors, and consumer groups, and risks and opportunities to monitor for the year ahead.

We’ll focus on any major changes to our expectations for the year and questions that have come up during the annual planning process. We’ll cover key topics such as the resilience of growth in major markets like the US, China, and Europe, how supply chains are evolving, and the risks and opportunities from AI investment.

This webinar is being held on our new platform, ON24. If you do not receive your confirmation email, please check your junk and spam folders.
