Webinar
European tourism recovery to continue apace in 2022 – ETC 2021 Q4 trends and prospects

with Dave Goodger and Adam Sacks | Online | January 27, 2022

Cross-border travel recovery has stalled during winter months following the re-imposition of some travel restrictions and lockdown measures following the emergence of the Omicron variant. However, restrictions are not as limiting as in previous waves and will also be lifted sooner to allow a resumption of travel growth. In this webinar we will explore the latest data and travel trends, including prospects for the resumption of intra-European and long-haul travel with a focus on the expected importance of transatlantic travel for various destinations in coming years.

Russia and Ukraine: Geneva stalemate isn’t an endgame

with Tatiana Orlova and Gabriel Sterne | Online | January 26, 2022

Russian and Ukrainian markets have probably overreacted to the apparent failure of the Geneva talks between the US and Russia. Geopolitical risks in the region remain elevated. But given the high potential cost of a military action, we believe Russia is more interested in continuing negotiations with the US and Nato than in attacking Ukraine.

When the taps run dry: Egypt’s susceptibility to capital outflows

with Callee Davis | Online | January 25, 2022

Portfolio inflows have become central in funding Egypt’s external position – a sudden reversal spells trouble for the North African nation. In this webinar we show how Egypt’s foreign reserve buffer would be impacted by a sudden deterioration in emerging market sentiment, what this would mean for the Egyptian pound, and how this might impede some of the economic reform progress made so far.

Bond yields to peak this year

with Javier Corominas and Daniel Grosvenor | Online | January 24, 2022

In our first webinar of the year, our strategists Javier Corominas and Daniel Grosvenor discuss key global macro themes, including, why we believe yields will soon peak even as real rates have risen, why equities are poised to deliver positive returns again this year despite a near-term wobble, and our view of a softer US Dollar, which should allow for a strong performance across EM local assets.

Investment and innovation opportunities from a net zero energy transition

with Felicity Hannon | Online | January 18, 2022

Achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2050 will require a radical transformation of the whole economy. But it also creates a unique opportunity to boost private investment and innovation. In this webinar Felicity will present Oxford Economics' new Net Zero Transformation scenario which explores some of the potential upside risks from the transition to net zero emissions by 2050. We assume that prevailing market inefficiencies are eliminated, and private investors grow confident that they can generate profits on green investment. This demand stimulus boosts long run productivity through improved resource allocation, reduced environmental damages and greater innovation.

Climate Change: Why knowing your supply chain is important

with Pete Collings | Online | December 22, 2021

COVID-19 has demonstrated the fragility of supply chains. Globalisation has seen supply chains become longer and longer, and reach the furthest corners of the world economy. Knowing where your supply chain goes is of increasing importance to not only help guard against risk, but also for companies to see the composition of their environmental footprint, and potentially take actions to change it.

High conviction global strategy calls for 2022

with Javier Corominas, Daniel Grosvenor and Regis Chatellier | Online | December 15, 2021

In our final webinar for the year, our strategists Javier Corominas, Daniel Grosvenor and Regis Chatellier will discuss our highest conviction calls across bonds, currencies and equities, both in DM and EM markets. 2021 has proved to be a year of twists and turns, as we moved from early to mid-cycle, reflation to stagflation concerns, amid ever present Covid-19 risks. We expect 2022 to bring challenges and increased opportunities for investors as policy differentiation takes hold and economic performance varies across markets, geographies and thus asset classes.

In this session, we will describe our baseline outlook as well as major risks and emerging trends for 2022. This will include thoughts on recovery in international travel for major markets and routes, plus prospects for business and events activity as well as any risks from higher pricing.

with Jamie Thompson and Chris Parfitt | Online | December 6, 2021

Key trends for Emerging markets in 2022

with Gabriel Sterne and Marcos Casarin | Online | December 3, 2021

We discuss the key issues that make 2022 such an important phase of EMs’ bumpy ride back to its future of a grating kind of stability. EMs will no longer be able to count on booming terms of trade and peaking external demand as tailwinds in 2022. But it is not all bad news. Inflation will fall next year, boosting fixed income returns as elevated term premia fall back. Marcos and Gabriel will pick out winners and losers from the perspective of economy and asset markets.

Can the strength in Australian industrial property be sustained?

with Lee Walker | Online | December 2, 2021

Industrial property across Australia’s eastern seaboard markets has been a standout performer over the last few years. In the occupancy markets, demand is strong, supercharged by pandemic related drivers. Industrial property construction is also high, but not enough to prevent a rapid reduction in vacancies, driving rental growth.

The future of interest rates and inflation in the eurozone

Online | December 1, 2021

We look beyond the pandemic to discuss where eurozone inflation and interest rates are heading over the next decades. The bloc’s real neutral interest rate has been on a consistent downward trend since 1980 and our analysis shows that it will remain negative for our entire forecast to 2050. This goes hand-in-hand with a weakness of eurozone aggregate demand which will depress inflation. We quantify and explain how nine secular forces are behind this, both historically and in our forecast.

Global Cities: The urban economic landscape in 2040

Online | November 30, 2021

The population living in the world’s 900 major cities has risen by more than 600 million over the last 20 years and we project a similar increase by 2040. But future growth trends vary significantly across the world, which will cause a further shift in the economic power of cities by 2040. In this webinar, we will present which cities are leading the race to join today’s urban superpowers at the top of the rankings, as well as other highlights from our annual Global Cities release based on new research into harmonised city definitions.

Webinar
Africa going on the defence: Investments aimed at containing the ill effects of climate change

Online | November 29, 2021

For most African nations, climate change is a matter of adaptation and not mitigation. Containing the continent’s carbon footprint will have significant policy and investment implications, but putting up defences against an inevitable rise in temperatures will be a top priority. In this webinar we give our view on how global warming will affect African economic development and which areas of climate change adaptation and mitigation we consider to be most important in South Africa, Nigeria, Kenya, and Ghana.

Online | November 26, 2021

As China’s economy is slowing down amid a real estate downturn and its zero Covid tolerance is holding back a consumption recovery, we explore the outlook for the economy and policy next year. We discuss the key themes that we expect to characterize China’s economic developments and policy in 2022, as well as its relations with the rest of the world.

Scaling the great wall of trade barriers

with BIS Oxford Economics | Online | November 25, 2021

Australia's trade relationship with China has been rocky over the past year. When trade tensions first emerged, we quantified which products we saw as most vulnerable to trade barriers in China, and the data over 2021 to date have largely borne out these findings. However, Australia's overall export performance has weathered these disruptions reasonably well, with exporters on average able to pivot into alternate markets.

What should be an appropriate carbon price in the wake of COP26

Online | November 23, 2021

Arguably, carbon prices are currently too low and we should be pricing carbon much more aggressively. In this webinar, James Nixon will review the existing estimates and methodologies with a view to gauging how high carbon prices might need to go in order to limit global warming in line with the Paris agreement. He will also consider some of the implications and outcomes of the recent COP26 in Glasgow.
