Shifting economic outlook - More inflation, more interest rate hikes
Join us to explore Moody's outlook on the global economy. We will examine geopolitical, monetary and supply chain trends and developments impacting economies across APAC.
Discussion Points:
- How much will US, EU and China growth slow?
- How fast is the economic cycle in emerging markets shifting?
- Is inflation back? What do rising costs of living mean for the recovery?
- What is the impact of aggressive rate hikes on markets, credit, and debt after COVID?
