Global fixed income outlook 2024: opportunity knocking
The world appears to have moved beyond the height of interest rate hikes, inflation and economic acceleration.
However, the repercussions of a higher-for-longer interest rate environment will be felt for some time. Economic growth looks set to remain flat in the U.S., Europe and Asia Pacific for the next couple of quarters alongside expectations of a mild recession.
Nevertheless, we remain encouraged by market conditions and believe that opportunities are presenting themselves across fixed income sectors. Nuveen’s global fixed income outlook provides insights and expectations for the year ahead in:
