Ursula Kizy, Director for North America, says, “The U.S. economy proved to have more strength and endurance than previously anticipated by analysts, who predicted an oncoming recession at the start of 2023. Consumption didn’t decrease as anticipated, companies continued to invest in research and development, and increased local government spending led the way out of an impending recession. Noticeably, several sectors saw dramatically increased interest from investors this year, underpinning investor confidence in a sturdy economic outlook.
