Uncool Brittania – where next for politics and economics?

Nick Morgan, Partner at Foresight Group, is joined by Rebecca Harding, Senior Fellow of the British Foreign Policy Group, for a webinar to discuss the UK’s political and economic outlook.

The discussion reflects on Labour’s first two years in power before examining what lies ahead - from the disconnect between the real economy and market performance, to the implications of geopolitical tensions, UK growth prospects, and the drivers behind today’s political volatility.

Learning outcomes:

Describe the key political, economic and geopolitical developments influencing the UK and global outlook, including the impact of changing international alliances, trade tensions and fiscal policy
Identify the principal economic security risks facing the UK, including defence spending pressures, supply chain vulnerabilities, energy security challenges and global market disruption
Explain how government fiscal constraints, taxation policy and public spending priorities could influence future economic conditions and investor behaviour
Assess the potential implications of political uncertainty, geopolitical risk and market dislocation for long-term financial planning and client conversation
