What will the world look like in 2050? Will the US remain the largest economy, or will China or India take the lead? Can AI solve the challenges posed by an ageing population? And will asset prices deliver the returns we expect?
Hamish McRae, an economics columnist for The i and the Mail on Sunday, is the author of The World in 2050: How to Think About the Future.

This is not financial advice. The reason itâs not financial advice is because itâs not tailored to you. We explain the principles of building wealth but if you want personalised advice, itâs worth speaking to a financial advisor. As with everything financial, please do your own research. We really encourage that because no one cares more about your money than you and if you learn the basics then it will change your life.
