The Impact of Oil Prices on Asia

Surveyed and ranked as one of the most prominent risk concerns for doing business in the Asia-Pacific region (as part of the World Economic Forum’s Global Risk Perceptions Survey), this perspective is part of the quarterly drill-downs into specific “Risk in Focus” series.

Co-authored with Oxford Economics, this perspective identifies winners and losers amongst producers, consumers, and governments, and stress-tests the macroeconomic impacts of further falls in oil prices through scenario analysis. It also provides tools and strategies for key stakeholders to consider in building resilience to oil price uncertainty and potential volatility.
