Capital Markets Outlook

As inflation stabilizes, interest rates are also starting to stabilize. This should have a positive impact on the capital market and our sector in 2024.

Experts believe that the Federal Reserve could cut key rates for the first time as of the second quarter of 2024. Economists predict a total of three rate cuts of 25 basis points each in the course of 2024. The direction in which the US economy develops will also depend on the outcome of the presidential elections in November 2024.

The ECB is also not expected to cut key rates in the eurozone until the second half of 2024 at the earliest following the recent marked slowdown in inflation.
