What’s next for Asia’s manufacturing and exports?

Topic: Asia’s manufacturing production and exports are not immune to ongoing global supply-side constraints. But our analysis shows that regional factors such as China’s weakening demand and domestic Covid-related restrictions have at times played a more important role. We discuss the drivers behind the slowdown in Asia’s manufacturing sector and exports and present our short-term outlook.

Why the cruise sector will rebound faster than after the Great Recession

The cruise sector was hit following the Great Recession by continued increases in capacity while travel demand slowed sharply – deep discounting was required at that time to spur demand. We are now seeing an apparent parallel trend as new cruise capacity spiked in 2022, despite travel remaining well below pre-pandemic norms in most destinations. In this webinar we describe the amount of additional new capacity that will be launched in coming years as well as demand expectations and why we believe sector recovery and cruise pricing will differ in this current cycle.
