The year 2024 promises to be a time of significant change and opportunity in the world of business investment, both nationally in Italy and internationally. Investors, large and small, are constantly looking for new ways to get the most out of their financial assets. In this article, we will examine the major investment trends expected in 2024, based on data and analysis from authoritative sources.
International Investment Trends
- Sustainable Energy: the focus on renewable energy and environmental sustainability will continue to grow in 2024. As efforts to combat climate change increase, companies that invest in green technologies, such as solar and wind power, will have a competitive advantage. Also reinforcing this trend will be ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) criteria, as the trend among investors today is to look not only at financial returns but also at the environmental and social impacts of their investment decisions. Further impetus will, also, come from governments and regulators.
