Last week our LinkedIn colleagues voted on our poll on the Fed’s decision to keep rates steady and here are the results.

To add to Jerome Powell’s decision, he stated, “We believe that our policy rate is likely at its peak for this tightening cycle”.

It’s believed that once inflation hits or moves below 2%, we’ll start seeing rate cuts.

Given inflation was at 3.35% in December 2023, and the last time inflation was below 2% was in February 2021, how confident do you feel we’ll see rates being cut before the end of Q2?

77% of large employers reported an increase in workforce mental health needs, according to Business Group on Health's 2024 Health Care Strategy Survey. This represents a significant jump from 44% in 2023.

Executives are not immune to this trend. A 2023 survey by Deloitte found that 60% of CEOs were concerned about their own mental health, with burnout and work-life balance being major concerns.

Imagine you and your workforce filled with resilience, creativity, and enthusiastic loyalty.

That's what we create.

• Agile talent acquisition: We move fast and adapt to your growing needs.

The result?

• 21% productivity boost from happy, healthy employees.
• Unleashed innovation from thriving minds.

With the start of the New Year, I’m looking forward to where PE firms are projecting their growth and focus.

Based on ’ input here are five trends to watch in 2024:

1. AI implementation will quickly shift from automating back-office functions to automating enterprise-scale platforms.

2. Infrastructure, particularly energy infrastructure, will continue expanding as an asset class for PE investment, allowing for more diversified products and funds that match investor expectations.

3. Value creation with a strong focus on finding the sweet spot between cost-cutting and fueling future growth to prepare for anticipated improvements in the exit market.

4. Managing working capital efficiently, with a focus on optimizing working capital and cutting costs without reducing their capacity to drive top-line growth.

5. Efforts to experiment and develop expanded opportunities in the retail market. For example, increasing RIA portfolio companies and third-party platforms.

Here are a few key roles that PE firms would need to drive growth in these areas.
