GIC Insights 2023
Unlocking New Horizons
About this Year's Theme
The world remains under immense strain as it contends with a mounting climate crisis and an evolving macroeconomic and geopolitical landscape. However, new horizons are coming into view. Despite their complex challenges, emerging markets are demonstrating resilience and the potential for long-term growth. Businesses are developing solutions that can accelerate the transition to a more sustainable future. Finally, opportunities abound even in a challenging investment environment.
At GIC Insights 2023, we explore the ongoing uncertainties facing policymakers, businesses, and investors, while making the ‘bull case’ – how unlocking the potential of emerging economies and nascent innovations can lead to profound global impact.
Programme
2022 Highlights
Structural shifts are underway globally across multiple dimensions. As more markets move towards endemicity and normalised policymaking, the private sector will play a bigger role in supporting growth going forward. Rapid technological adoption and progress, and the urgent need to act on sustainability risks are also transforming the role of regulation, consumer behaviour, business models and economic structures. However, this transition journey is unlikely to be smooth as markets respond to the changes amidst elevated valuations, very low real interest rates, record high public debt levels, and persistent inflationary and geopolitical pressures.
At GIC Insights 2022, we will discuss these fundamental shifts, and the challenges and opportunities faced by policymakers, businesses, and investors.
