Global CEO Survey: Navigating the Rising Tide of Uncertainty

For the first time, more than half of the CEOs surveyed believe the rate of global GDP growth will decline. The finding is compelling because it reflects low confidence in their organization’s outlook, which has proven to be a reliable indicator of both the direction and the level of global GDP growth in the year ahead. Although U.S. CEOs are among the most pessimistic about global growth, they are among the most confident about their own organizations’ growth prospects. This survey focuses on CEO insights in the following top-of-mind areas: growth, technology regulation, upskilling, and climate change.
