A Tale of Two Economies with Marisa DiNatale of Moody’s
A Tale of Two Economies with Marisa DiNatale of Moody’s
July 15, 2026
Wednesday 1:00 p.m.-2:00 p.m. ET
The Travelers Institute hosted Marisa DiNatale, Senior Director and Head of Global Forecasting at Moody’s Analytics, for a deep dive on the economy. She shared her outlook for the year ahead as odds of an economic downturn have increased. Geopolitical conflicts are offsetting the tailwinds from fiscal policy, yet AI’s momentum continues to propel the economy forward, despite slower job growth and rising inflation. Consumer sentiment is near an all-time low, while the stock market is near an all-time high. DiNatale delved into this disparity and shared her perspective on what businesses and individuals should be watching in the months ahead.
This program is presented as part of the Travelers Institute’s Forces at Work initiative, an educational platform to help today’s leaders navigate the shifting dynamics of the modern workplace and prioritize employees and their well-being.
