Economic Outlook 2024: Navigating inflation, interest rates and achieving a soft landing

Webcast

Webcast overview

Join us for our annual 2024 Economic Outlook event with Chief Economist Diane Swonk. Diane will share her perspective on the 2024 economic landscape. 

During the session Diane will discuss:

  • The outlook for the U.S. and global economy in the wake of one of the most aggressive and synchronous credit tightening cycles on record.
  • Changes in the labor market and what that means for the economy more broadly.
  • Disruptors to the outlook, from Gen AI to climate change and shifts in global trade flows.
  • The need for agility in a world with more rapid shifts – the 2010s were the anomaly, not the norm.

Tony Fratto, Global Head of Corporate Communications at Goldman Sachs and former deputy assistant and principal deputy press secretary to President George W. Bush, will join Diane in a discussion on how businesses can adeptly identify opportunities and confidently navigate uncertainties.

Do not miss this opportunity to prepare your strategies for the economic journey ahead.
