Post Pandemic Period
Even post-pandemic, the global economic landscape in 2023 faces challenges. The report projects a sharp slowdown in global growth in 2023, followed by a moderate recovery in 2024.
In addition, the recent crisis in the banking sector of advanced economies may contribute to the decrease in economic activity through more restrictive credit conditions. Individuals and companies must be prepared to face and deal with a more challenging economic environment.
Paying attention to these factors and understanding the nature of these challenges will be key to improving the conditions for adapting to the changing landscape of the global economy in 2023.
Risks of Banking Turbulence
Currently, the landscape of the global economy in 2023 demonstrates risks of banking turbulence. In conjunction with tighter monetary policy, this ultimately results in weakened global growth.
An increase in borrowing costs in advanced economies may evolve into financial imbalances in emerging countries. In low-income nations, fiscal positions will become increasingly precarious.
In this context, it is essential to adopt more cautious and strategic approaches in order to mitigate adverse effects, promoting more sustainable economic solutions.
Importance of International Cooperation
Against the backdrop of challenges such as climate change, humanitarian crises and food insecurity, international cooperation is key. From this collaboration it will be possible to effectively address these issues.
The fact is that it is not just an option, but an urgency. For collaboration to actually happen, it is necessary to implement reforms that strengthen physical and human capital, with a growth in labor supply, in addition to investing in infrastructure, education and health, always thinking about achieving sustainable growth in the future.
Considerations
