InvestmentNews staff predictions for 2022
Industry: A new variant of Covid-19 other than delta and omicron will form that will also be resistant to the vaccine, very contagious, but still more mild in those who are vaccinated. This will lead to continued hybrid situations and various innovative ways to do business within the finance sector. It will also lead to a required booster shot every six to nine months. Employees at larger financial institutions will leave these practices to form their own firms at a higher rate in 2022. The fiduciary standard will become even more mainstream as clients research on their own terms instead of sticking with familial suggestions and look to invest with reputable firms.
Personal: In 2022, many large food companies and restaurants will start to sell and invest in vegan food, partially to help the animals and for health reasons of consumers, but also due to the inflated prices of meats.
