General description

The political, macroeconomic and financial market circumstances that drive the world economy remain complex. After a record number of elections in 2024, including in the three largest democracies India, the European Union and the United States, shifts in policies will impact businesses, financial markets and the overall economy alike. To what extent remains to be seen and needs to be assessed in the context of underlying global trends like geoeconomic fragmentation, demographic changes, climate change and major technological advances. The impact this will have on economic growth, inflation, interest rates and financial markets will also be relevant for the business of insurers and reinsurers in the years to come. This seminar will focus on these developments and provide an economic outlook for both 2025 and the years beyond.

After a year with a record number of elections – what has changed in politics in 2024 and how does this influence the outlook for 2025?
Macroeconomic perspective and risk scenarios for 2025 – higher growth ahead or renewed recession risks?
Inflation has been on a downwards trend – will this continue and what does this mean for central bank policies, interest rates and financial markets?
Geopolitics, digitalisation, demographics and climate change remain the key global trends – any new developments here that will affect the economic outlook?
Major implications for the insurance industry
