Mid-Year Economic Outlook 2024

The Swiss Chamber of Commerce in Hong Kong​ is delighted to present its upcoming event, the 'Mid-Year Economic Outlook 2024', scheduled on 10 September 2024.

Building upon the success of our previous Economic Outlooks, this panel discussion will center around navigating recent geopolitical frictions, key megatrends such as the rise of generative AI, the impact of aging demographics and low-carbon transition, as well as central bank policies in response to inflationary pressures and supply constraints. Additionally, we will explore investment strategies in the context of China's economic distress, the potential shift away from US dollar dominance, the resurgence of bonds, and the significance of the Big Seven tech stocks. Of course, we cannot ignore the impact the US elections will have on the global economy and the role that emerging economies will play in the future.
