In 2022, the issue of inflation is particularly acute, coming off the back off of supply chain disruption and material shortages caused by pandemic-related lockdowns, coupled with governments around the world all turning to infrastructure investment to provide a post-pandemic stimulus.
At this roundtable, chaired by ICE President Ed McCann, attendees from the UK, Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand and the Middle East discussed the drivers behind the rise in inflation, the potential impact of higher costs on infrastructure pipelines and what measures different players across the sector could take to manage the risks.
