How will economies confront the growing burden of debt? What are the broader implications of policy responses for the private sector? And how can small, open economies—such as Hungary—successfully navigate this increasingly complex global environment?

Join us for a thought-provoking presentation by Zsolt Becsey Jr., Chief Economist of UniCredit Bank Hungary, as he explores the most critical challenges facing the global economy today. Drawing on deep analytical insight, he will also share his perspectives on Hungary’s macroeconomic outlook and the key risks and opportunities ahead.
