Video: 2022 Economic Outlook – Alex Joiner
IFM’s Chief Economist, Alex Joiner, features in our Monthly Economic Update video discussing recent key developments in economies and markets globally.
In this pre-Christmas edition, Alex discusses his 2022 Economic Outlook. Whilst he believes most advanced economies should continue to deliver above trend growth rates in 2022 as the recovery broadens and supply-demand imbalances abate, uncertainty remains elevated. The Omicron COVID variant is one of the key downside risks to growth globally.
