This latest edition of the EY Future Consumer Index (Index) – the 10th in the series – shows that people have become used to living in a context of relentless crisis and uncertainty. In the minds of consumers, the distinction probably doesn’t matter. It’s debatable whether this combination of factors is creating a new crisis or simply extending the one we were in already. The global economy is slowing down, interest rates are going up, inflation has returned on a scale not seen for decades, geopolitics is playing out on the global stage, and new variants of COVID-19 continue to emerge. And when it looked as though the clouds were slowly starting to lift, people started to prioritize a new set of “post-crisis” values, especially around sustainability.īut that post-crisis era is yet to arrive. As the economic impact of the pandemic took its toll, they shifted their attention to affordability and the cost of living. When the COVID-19 pandemic first emerged, people put their health first, adopting very different behaviors and attitudes almost literally overnight.
