A pandemic, war in Ukraine, deglobalization, energy transition, labour shortage, artificial intelligence: the economy and the markets have given us many surprises over the past three years that are changing our paradigms. Now, more than ever, it is important to have a clear view of the situation to make the right decisions and adapt to this tumultuous world.
What path is in store for interest rates? Will inflation continue to be surprisingly resilient? Is an economic slowdown still on the horizon? What impact will historic demographic growth have on the real estate and labour markets? What geopolitical issues should be on our radar? And what can we expect from financial markets?
Join us for the National Bank Economic Forum on Thursday, September 21, 2023, at the Palais des congrès de Montréal. Laurent Ferreira, President and Chief Executive Officer of National Bank, and Stéfane Marion, the Bank's Chief Economist and Strategist, will present their take on the current economic context. They will then answer questions from Michel Leblanc, President and CEO of the Chamber of Commerce of Metropolitan Montreal. Make it a date!
