The world economy has observed exceptional growth. Recent sources suggest that the global growth is projected at 2.8% this year, and 2.9% in the coming year.
As per sources, this may be the result of reduction in commodity prices, persistent disinflation, and monetary easing in varied nations.
Various renowned speakers came together to share their thoughts on the same in this year’s Money Control Global Wealth Summit. In the following lines, we will be learning about the same.
Highlighting Expert Insights On Global Economy In 2025
1. The Conversation Around Trumponomics & Global Investment Shifts
Mark Coombs, CEO of Ashmore Group enlightened attendees on the concept of “Trumponomics”, economic policies shaped by the U.S. President Donald Trump. Coombs highlighted how global trade, capital flows, and investment strategies have been reshaped and influenced by the 47th U.S. President.
Coombs also talked about the measures that must be undertaken to understand these changes and navigate the current investment climate rationally. Trump’s impact on reduced globalization, aggressive tariffs especially from China, and more stringent immigration policies were also discussed.
Although supporters are of the opinion that these measures can be productive in improving economic growth, critics argue that it might be detrimental to the economy due to increasing inflation and tensions.
2. Exploring 2025 Market Hunt: Timing & Trends
Vikas Sharma, Head- Wealth Management & Private banking, IDFC FIRST Bank, Lakshmi Iyer, CEO, Investments & Strategy, Kotak Alternate Asset Managers, Rajeev Thakkar, CIO & Director, PPFAS Mutual Fund, Vikas Khemani, Founder, Carnelian Asset Advisors, and Amit Jeswani, Founder & CIO, Stallion Asset came together to discuss strategies pertaining to the 2025 market dynamics and evaluating alpha opportunities.
Panellists discussed why good bank performance is essential for overall economic growth, and why the BFSI sector is poised to emerge as the industrial winner in a few years.
Further, they spoke about how the ongoing market correction might encourage increased interest in private equity investments. Collectively, the panel focused on the dire need for trend analysis and strategic timing to accomplish superior investment performance this year.
3. Unlocking The Secret Behind Cryptos Going Mainstream
Sumit Gupta, Co-founder & CEO of CoinDCX, Ashish Singhal, Co-founder of CoinSwitch, Edul Patel, Co-founder & CEO of Mudrex, and Vikram Subburaj, CEO and Co-founder of Giottus came together to emphasise on the cryptocurrency going mainstream.
While Gupta spoke about cryptocurrencies relevant as global assets with growing potential, Patel stated that the discourse around these assets is becoming more nuanced. This, in turn, is helping empower the confidence of various investors and enabling them to understand digital assets better.
Amidst this, Gupta spoke about how digital assets could be great as hedge against traditional market volatilities. Meanwhile, Subburaj raised concerns about institutional investors and family offices, indicating a shift towards a larger acceptance in the realm of traditional investments.
