Details

The long-held assumption that inflation would remain low indefinitely has been proved wrong, roiling equity and bond markets.

The risk is that rising wages become entrenched, forcing big shifts in monetary and fiscal policy, with unpredictable effects on the economy and more volatility for investors.

Meanwhile, much of the world is trying to move beyond the pandemic, toward treating Covid-19 as an endemic disease.

While that could yet be upended if a more virulent variant emerges, it would start to offer clarity on quite how much has changed in the workforce, consumer habits and the economy during the past few years.

Added to that, the geopolitical backdrop has shifted. China is taking a more assertive position over Taiwan, and Russia has engineered a standoff with Western powers over Ukraine.

It looks set to be a volatile year. We will explore these issues and what they mean for business leaders as they also push to improve the sustainability of their businesses.
