Traducción de: Panorama económico y sectorial 2024 : perspectivas hacia el segundo semestre. - Madrid : Fundación MAPFRE, 2024Sumario: The current outlook offers a more balanced macroeconomic picture, although the slowdown in the global economy continues to pose certain divergences in terms of activity, inflation and monetary policies, in the face of a challenging geopolitical scenario. Thus, the report's baseline scenario forecasts global economic growth of 3.0% for 2024 and 2.9% for 2025, while, in terms of prices, average inflation for these years is anticipated to be 4.5% and 3.5%, respectively. The balance of global risks is slightly biased to the downside, with geopolitical, governance and economic policy risks leading the balance, along with a potential transition to a less benign, though not recessionary, scenario. This economic backdrop will continue to have a positive impact on both insurance demand and industry profitability, aided by more moderate inflation and high financial income from high interest ratesLa copia digital se distribuye bajo licencia "Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY NC 4.0)".
