Twelve months ago, economist Antonio Fatás joined ERA Group for a webinar that quickly struck a nerve. He asked a simple but unsettling question: what is happening to the world economy?
This year’s webinar picked up exactly where that conversation left off, revisiting the same question with a year’s worth of new data, shocks and policy twists.
Today’s environment is often described with heavy words – “unprecedented”, “never seen before”, “uncharted territory”. Antonio’s instinct is to push back on that, describing on one side a world economy that has proved far more resilient than many expected, and on the other a set of slow-burn risks and policy updates building in the background. For business leaders, there is room for optimism, but not for complacency.

"Uncertainty, in this context, is not a reason to freeze. The world ahead may not be entirely new, but its combination of familiar shocks and genuine inflection points demands thoughtful leadership.Those who respond with measured, evidence-based decisions – rather than panic or denial – will be best placed not only to endure the next wave of shocks, but to build stronger, more adaptable businesses beyond 2026."
