Five elections to watch in 2024

National interest objectives will influence reordering of relationships between countries and in multilateral forums, impacting global challenges, flows of trade and investment. Countries will cooperate where objectives align, and areas of competition will likely increase. How faster-growing economies exercise their rising economic and geopolitical influence will be key. An important indicator underlying the direction of these risks in 2024 will be the outcome of dozens of scheduled elections. In this episode, we look at five of these elections outside the US: India, South Africa, the European Union, the UK, and Mexico. We selected these polls because they touch on the economic fragility we see in the world, and, outside the US, are most likely to impact business.  Featured experts: •    Deepa Kumar, Head of Asia-Pacific Country Risk •    Laurence Allan, Head of European Insights and Analysis •    Jose Enrique Sevilla-Macip, Senior Analyst for Latin America •    Lange Malimela, Head of Country Risk, sub-Saharan Africa Explore our full library of S&P Global Market Intelligence podcasts: https://www.spglobal.com/marketintelligence/en/news-insights/podcasts/
