British Retail Consortium invites you to their event

Energy, Inflation and the Consumer: What the Middle East Crisis Means for You

About this event

The current crisis in the Middle East represents more than just a fluctuation in oil prices; it is a fundamental shift in the global economic outlook for 2026.

Prior to these developments, inflation was expected to stabilise near 2 per cent. Now, with the Strait of Hormuz facing unprecedented disruption, businesses and households are confronting a stagflation risk: a period of low growth coupled with rising costs.

Understanding the depth of this shock is essential for any strategic planning or financial forecasting - register for this webinar to learn more.
