In January 2024, the global economy witnessed a series of pivotal developments, from the UK's ongoing struggle for growth post-pandemic to Japan's stock market rally and China's deflationary pressures.

In 2023, investors faced a turbulent landscape marked by geopolitical tensions, rising inflation, and shifting central bank policies. However, as we step into 2024, the horizon appears brighter.

November saw a tapestry of economic events unfolding globally. In the Americas, the US experienced a welcome decrease in inflation, buoying Wall Street stocks and leading to a pause in the Federal Reserve's rate hikes. Meanwhile, Canada responded by ramping up investments in green energy, seeking to stay competitive with its southern neighbour.

In the ever-evolving landscape of global economics, recent developments across the Americas, Europe, Asia, and Africa have captured the attention of investors, policymakers, and analysts alike. From surging inflation in the United States to political upheaval in Argentina and economic strategies in Italy.

In recent global economic developments, the Bank of England's decision to delay banking reforms, mirroring the Federal Reserve, has raised concerns about financial stability in Europe, while the eurozone faces economic challenges amid declining business activity due to interest rate hikes.

In August, China coped with post-Covid economic issues and trimmed interest rates. Europe's resilience was tested by Russia's recession and the UK's inflation review. Uncertainties stemmed from Argentina's turmoil, US Federal Reserve's actions, and Niger's coup.

UK's household wealth plunged due to rising interest rates, causing a £2 trillion reduction. US inflation eased to 3% after Federal Reserve rate hikes, impacting Wall Street and the dollar. Brazil's milestone Tax Reform under Lula aims to boost GDP by 2.3%.

The past month has witnessed significant shifts across various regions. Early moves by Nigeria’s new president, Bola Tinubu, have attracted investors to Africa’s most populous nation. Meanwhile, in the Eurozone, the European Central Bank (ECB) raised interest rates to their highest level since 2001.

US treasuries and Wall Street stocks rise as inflation drops, Western sanctions have led to a sharp decline in Russian energy revenues, down 50% in Q1 2023, while the UK and EU are improving cooperation on financial regulation.

Positive developments in the Eurozone defy recession predictions, while the UK grapples with high inflation. Brazil and Russia support China's bid for the Yuan as a global currency.

Turkey achieves an impressive milestone by raising $2.25 billion through international bond deals, providing crucial financial support for post-earthquake recovery efforts.
