The fight against inflation has already toppled banks in the US and Switzerland, raising the possibility that something else will break before the battle is won. Can the global hiking cycle continue or will central banks be forced to pivot?

Join leading Bloomberg economists and strategists for the fifth instalment of our Macro Strategy Outlook Series. In this session, we'll explore the implications of the banking crisis for growth inflation and rates. We'll also show how to analyze risks to the outlook using the Bloomberg Economics Forecast Model (SHOK).

Discussion Topics
• How the Fed is responding to the banking crisis and what it means for rates.
• How the Bank of England and European Central Bank will navigate risks to the outlook.
• What all this means for markets, with a focus on advanced economy FX and fixed income.
• What companies are saying about the outlook, using new tools on the Bloomberg Terminal.
