2024 Economic Outlook

January 24, 2024 | 2 p.m. ET

60 minutes | Hosted in English

The Canadian and global economies have cooled down in recent months, with hopes that central banks might start to offer some relief in 2024. Interest rates, inflation, all things real estate and the overall affordability of Canadians continues to be top of mind.

Our annual TELUS Health Manager Speaker Circuit Economic Outlook will feature key panelists who will explore the continuously changing economy and its potential impact on the financial health of pension plans, endowments and foundations.
