Recommendation

Global growth in financial services and the automotive, retail, health care, energy and telecommunications industries looks to continue into 2019, according to this annual analysis from the Economist Intelligence Unit. Yet against this upbeat prognosis lurk some potentially unsavory prospects. The overarching trade tussle between the United States and China, the acrimonious Brexit outcome, and higher interest rates in the New Year are just some of the potential pitfalls that could spell trouble for these sectors. Executives will find this a useful, wide-ranging forecast for 2019.

Take-Aways

  • Sales of automobiles, retail goods, energy, financial services, health care and telecommunication services are on an upward trajectory for 2019.
  • Numerous factors, including a protracted US–China trade war, the fallout from Brexit and threats to cybersecurity could impinge on this growth.
  • New-vehicle sales will rise, though the trade conflict is already causing havoc in automotive supply chains. The consumer goods sector should see an increase of 2.8%.
