Global Politics

Global Policy Outlook Series: Business & Regulatory Climate, H2 2024

September 2024

Report summary

Morning Consult’s Global Policy Outlook series provides monthly analysis of global sentiment on key issues at the intersection of politics and economics across 19 of the world’s largest markets, along with our six-month forecast of where policymaking is headed.

This edition assesses global public sentiment surrounding the business and regulatory climate — including labor protections, antitrust, and diverging views on politics and the economy — with our data suggesting that the high-water mark in public demand for labor protections may have arrived, offering some companies a reprieve in the months ahead.

In addition to the above, key issues covered include:

  • Global trends in public views of corporate taxation, deregulation, antitrust and labor market protections
  • Market-specific analysis of risks and opportunities in major global markets, including a spotlight on U.S. antitrust sentiment heading into the November 2024 elections

Methodology

This report relies on data collected through Morning Consult’s proprietary survey research capabilities from August 2023 through August 2024. Data comes from monthly surveys conducted among representative samples of roughly 1,000 adults per country, with unweighted margins of error of +/-3 percentage points. All interviews are conducted online. Surveys field during the second half of the indicated month.

Data is weighted to approximate representative samples of adults in each country surveyed. Weighting parameters vary by country.
