APMP Professional Development Webinar- November 21st, 2024
Using the International Economic Dashboard to Enhance Your Proposals
APMP resident economist, Tatiana Bailey, Ph.D., will walk through the monthly EPR, or Economic Progress Report to help members understand the various economic and demographic metrics that are driving the U.S. and Euro Area (EA) economies. She will also address the latest data releases and how that is shaping today and tomorrow’s outlook. Dr. Bailey will hold a question and answer period after the presentation.
- After a technical recession in the Euro Area (and a few of its member countries), the EA is recovering although long-term sustainable growth is in question due to a variety of structural issues.
- The U.S. economy is slowing under the strain of higher interest rates although it is looking increasingly likely that the Federal Reserve will cut rates once or twice before year-end. This should bolster investment and keep the U.S. out of recession.
- Both the U.S. and EA have significant structural issues (e.g., aging demographics, debt) that serve as long-term headwinds that will keep growth rates muted.
