Economic Outlook:
Keeping the Global Recovery on Track

Countries are working hard to keep the global recovery on track, yet many risks remain as countries emerge from the ongoing pandemic facing different challenges, and varying vaccination rates.

In the U.S., demand for some goods and housing prices have surged, pushing up inflation. This is being compounded by tensions in supply chains, higher shipping and commodity prices, and labor shortages caused by the phenomenon known as the 'Great Resignation', causing a slowdown in growth during the third quarter of 2021.

Building back better will mean making structural and systemic changes to tackle pre-existing weaknesses, as well as those arising from the pandemic.

How should policy makers confront these challenges to ensure economic resilience and sustainability; boost productivity; and help people achieve a just and inclusive recovery?

Join us for a presentation of the forthcoming economic outlook for the U.S. and major economies to be published on December 1. The session will also discuss the economic policies needed for the economic recovery, both in the U.S. and throughout the OECD.
