Global Politics

Global Policy Outlook Series: Threat Perceptions, H2 2024

July 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 18 of the world’s largest markets, along with our six-month forecast of where policymaking is headed.

This edition assesses global public perceptions of major political, social and economic threats.

Halfway through 2024's global election supercycle, moderating inflation is shifting attention back to the climate and domestic political risks. 

Key issues covered in the context of these dynamics include:

  • New data and trends on public perceptions of the threats posed by domestic political risks in 18 markets, covering political polarization, social unrest, ethno-religious tensions, climate change and more.
  • The likelihood of renewed consumer attention to sustainability and climate change mitigation, with a focus on Mexico, as concerns about global inflation take more of a back seat.

 

Corporate decision-makers, risk management and financial services professionals, and public sector entities rely on this report series to understand how public sentiment is trending across critical policy areas and make business, investment and public sector decisions accordingly.
