The CEO of deVere Group warns investors to 'stagflation-proof' their investments as global economic growth slows and inflation persists. Global institutions, including the IMF, have flagged downside risks, including near-recession conditions.
The CEO of deVere Group, Nigel Green, is warning investors to prepare for stagflation, a combination of weak economic growth and high inflation. Recent business surveys across major economies indicate slowing growth and persistent inflation, despite record highs in equity markets. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite reached all-time highs, but PMI data across Europe shows activity near stagnation, with elevated cost pressures driven by energy market instability. The International Monetary Fund has warned of downside risks, including near-recession conditions, with global growth projected at 3.1% in 2026 and 3.2% in 2027. Investors should expect market volatility and reconsider traditional portfolio strategies, focusing on assets linked to real economic activity, such as energy producers and commodity-linked equities. Central banks face limited room for maneuver, with rate decisions constrained by conflicting pressures.
