    Webinar: A Path to Postgrowth Pensions

    “If our economies cannot grow forever, and they cannot, we need to start thinking differently about how we plan for retirement.”

    Pensions as we know them are not future fit. They are trapped in a system that requires continuous growth of assets on a planet with finite resources and most are vastly underestimating the risks associated with that. By disaster or by design, profound changes are in store for pensions-as-usual, whether they see them coming or not.

    This paper lays out the challenges pensions are faced with today, the opportunities for change in line with a transition to an economy that can , and an immediately applicable shift in mindset that could help us realize resilient, growth-independent wellbeing in retirement.

    The Global Economy in 2026: Resilience, Risks, and Policies

    The global economy proved more resilient than expected last year. Trade and financial flows held up better than anticipated, and many emerging market and developing economies navigated a challenging global environment with notable strength. Yet medium-term growth prospects remain subdued, policy uncertainty is elevated, and geopolitical tensions persist. As the world economy moves into the new year, critical questions loom: How durable is the recent momentum? What risks could derail the outlook? And which policies are needed to lift growth, create jobs, and strengthen macroeconomic stability? Join CGD for a discussion of these issues, drawing on the World Bank’s January 2026 Global Economic Prospects report.

    Time: 2:00 – 3:00 PM ET
