Details
Tight monetary policy, elevated inflation and a global slowdown have by and large weighed on Asia’s economy this year. Meanwhile, 2024 is shaping up to be a mixed bag. Asia, largely made up of export-oriented economies, is likely to be weighed down by a recession in the US and the Eurozone. However, that is likely to prompt major central banks to loosen policy in response, giving Asia’s policymakers a freer hand to do the same and boost the economy.
What is going to be the net impact? How about Mainland China, where the growth cycle is now somewhat out of sync with the rest of the region thanks to a late reopening? Join us as we break down these issues and more.
Topics covered will include:
Growth forecasts for 2023 and 2024 – what are the drivers and risks?
• Monetary policy outlook for 2023 and 2024 – if and when central banks will cut and by how much?
• Why the Mainland Chinese economy is likely to slow in 2024, while the rest of Asia picks up.
