Real time surveys. Business insights.
Companies are pursuing growth in a constantly changing and volatile business landscape. There’s no go-to playbook for executives. But you’re not alone. Other C-level executives and corporate board members are finding their way, too. Tapping into this collective intelligence can help you anticipate what’s next, see how you measure up and spark new ideas for growth. That’s what PwC’s Pulse Survey program is all about.
We regularly engage functional leaders from finance, marketing, human capital, technology, operations, risk and tax, as well as board members and CEOs, on the pressing issues of the day, including their outlook on the business environment, new technologies and much more.
Current survey
Our latest Pulse Survey shows uncertainty about the 2024 election and its outcome and the economic, political and regulatory risks that could affect businesses as a result. Despite lower interest rates, executives surveyed see a difficult business environment in the near term, with 61% seeing a potential recession in the next six months. Mixed economic data, geopolitical tensions, a slowing labor market and consumers still squeezed by higher costs are all contributing to the outlook.
While the majority of executives surveyed are planning to continue investing in key areas of business, they’re also worried about policies from both candidates. Nearly three quarters (71%) agree that post-election trade and tax policies will hurt US competitiveness regardless of who becomes president
Uncertainty, volatility, complexity and risk make for a difficult time to lead companies.
