In a market like we’ve seen over the last year, who would dare predict what lies ahead in 2023? While most of us ride the economic wave with all of its twists and turns, it’s the industry professionals in leadership positions who have to anticipate what’s next, when that change will take place and how best to adapt and thrive.

That’s why we’ve drawn from the expertise of some of the top minds in the market to hear how they’re preparing for the next 12 months. The big question on everyone’s mind is whether the wild fluctuations in interest rates will begin to even out, but what else is keeping these executives up at night?
