Mid-year update on Canada’s economic outlook: Primed for super-charged growth in H2 and through 2022

Topic: Canada is on the verge of a growth spurt as widespread vaccinations permit a full reopening of the economy, pent up demand is released, consumers begin spending their excess savings, and fiscal and monetary stimulus continue in Canada and abroad. All provinces will fully recover by the end of this year, with Western provinces and metros expected to outperform the East after the disruption from the pandemic is overcome. Still, our new North American cities and regions scenario service suggests some downside risks will persist.

Please note that we will be holding one webinar each for Americas, EMEA and APAC friendly timezones:

  • Americas – Wednesday 18th August | 11:00 EDT
  • EMEA – Wednesday 18th August | 10:00 BST
  • APAC – Wednesday 18th August | 10:00 HKT

China’s New Manufacturing Push

China’s industrial policy has played a pivotal role in its growth strategy over the past few decades. A renewed state-led push into “new industrialisation” and the “new productive forces” has the potential to accelerate the country’s move up the manufacturing value chain, but could also invite greater protectionist backlash and heighten China’s vulnerability to external demand shocks. We discuss these dynamics in greater detail and invite questions from our readers.
