  • Anxious Societies: The evolving and difficult geo-political backdrop has made personal security a concern for many. Hence, several associated problems need public-private solutions with companies playing an important role.

  • Technology: The rapid digitalisation and business transformation using IT tools are continuing at a rapid pace, now with the use of AI.
  • Silver Economy: The strong growth in aging of societies may lead to challenges that will call for the innovative solutions in healthcare, insurance etc. 
  • Millennials’ Views: As per the official release, “The rise of Generation Y and Z and their core values are influencing companies as well as governments.”

During the launch Burkhard Varnholt, Global chief investment officer, Credit Suisse, said: “While the Supertrends could not escape the downtrend in financial markets in 2022, we retain our overall conviction across the Supertrends and their subthemes. We believe the Supertrends continue to offer value in terms of diversification and growth opportunities by focusing on themes that transcend business cycles and will ultimately shape the future.”
