UK & London Economic Outlook

Online | January 26, 2021

2021 began, economically, on the same socially distanced and locked-down note that characterised much of last year. But the rollout of Covid vaccines offers some light at the end of the tunnel. Just how hard have Covid and measures to control the virus struck the economy, and how enduring, or otherwise, might the damage be? And how realistic are hopes that vaccines and other positives could unleash a rapid rebound as pent-up demand is released and consumer and business confidence recovers?  Join us as we discuss our latest outlook for the UK and London economies, including a deep-dive into the tourism sector.

US macro, industries, and regions webinar – How will Omicron’s spread impact the economic recovery?

Online |

2022 is off to a grim start, with Covid case rates already vastly exceeding previous infection waves, public officials in certain regions re-imposing containment measures, and consumers and businesses treading more cautiously. What’s more, executives across an array of industries are stressed by significant supply-side disruptions, pushing up prices and making it hard for them to meet demand. The unresolved health situation, a growing fiscal drag, and a more hawkish Federal Reserve will make for a delicate economic rebalancing this year. But while the recovery will face headwinds, the economy is in a very different place today than in 2020 and 2021. Tune in to learn more about what we think is in store for the US economy – with a spotlight on the path ahead for US industries and regions.

How different will 2022 be for the world’s major cities, compared with 2021? Will it be a continuation of partial and often erratic recovery, or will there be more of a take-off? Will working from home fade away, and will tourists be back in force? Might macroeconomic worries, plus adaption to climate change, cloud the picture? And are the answers the same for all major cities, or will trajectories sharply diverge?

Online |

After an impressive bounce back in 2021, global real estate returns are set for another good year in 2022 despite the lingering uncertainty over the Omicron variant.

Relative to other asset classes real estate returns look strong but many risks remain including from rising bond yields and renewed public health restrictions. In this context, we examine where the best opportunities lie in global commercial real estate markets over the next 5 years.
