After a year of elections, there’ll be more certainty about who’s running the world’s major economies in 2025. Donald Trump’s election victory has already given financial markets a boost, but will his second term generate big returns, or be marred by tariffs and trade wars? Interest rates, inflation and the economy will remain key themes, not just in the US but worldwide. So will artificial intelligence, quantum computing and cryptocurrencies, but the conversation about their longevity will rumble on.
Following another sub-par year for domestic equities, UK investors will continue to monitor both the fallout from Labour’s election win in July and whether cheap UK stocks can narrow the deficit to overseas peers. Most likely, another bunch of British companies will end 2025 under foreign ownership. Either way, investors will want a diversified portfolio to cover all eventualities.

Important information: The ii SIPP is for people who want to make their own decisions when investing for retirement. As investment values can go down as well as up, you may end up with a retirement fund that’s worth less than what you invested. Usually, you won’t be able to withdraw your money until age 55 (57 from 2028). Before transferring your pension, check if you’ll be charged any exit fees and make sure you don't lose any valuable benefits such as guaranteed annuity rates, lower protected pension age or matching employer contributions. If you’re unsure about opening a SIPP or transferring your pension(s), please speak to an authorised financial adviser.
