Watch back this CBI Spotlight webinar exploring the latest outlook for the UK economy and what it could mean for the Autumn Budget, global markets and business planning in an increasingly uncertain world.
In this session, speakers examine how rising geopolitical tensions, higher energy prices and renewed market volatility are shaping prospects for UK growth, inflation and business confidence. The discussion considers the implications for the public finances ahead of the Autumn Budget, alongside the UK's position within a rapidly evolving global economic landscape.
Key discussion points include:
- The latest outlook for UK growth and inflation, including the key risks and opportunities businesses should consider in forward planning.
- What a weaker economic outlook could mean for the Chancellor's Autumn Budget and the policy priorities needed to support long-term growth.
- How recent volatility in government bond markets reflects investor sentiment towards the UK economy and public finances.
- The role of the US economy in shaping global growth and the lessons the UK can draw from America's relative economic resilience.
