The Economic Outlook: What to Expect and How to React

2022 has been a year of dramatic economic change. Supply-chain disruptions, inflation at 40-year highs, and interest rates surging at the fastest pace in decades have caused financial institutions and central banks to update their forecasts frequently. In addition, geopolitics is playing a new and more troublesome role in the medium and long term, causing structural shifts in the economy.

Integrating sound economic views can enhance the activities of all actors in financial markets using risk identification and assessment processes, modeling and validating, credit and market admission and monitoring, strategic actions, and even budgeting. At this meeting Erik F. Nielsen, Group Chief Economics Advisor at UniCredit Bank, will discuss what to expect for economic growth moving forward as well as the many risks and uncertainties present.

Erik’s presentation will cover: 

• Short-term expectations for GDP and Inflation

• Various events and other risks that may alter forecasts

• His views on credit and equity markets

• Geopolitics and implications for medium- and long-term expectations for interest rates and inflation-neutral growth

• Guidance for risk practitioners
