ASEAN consumer activity to moderate in 2024: report

The region, however, will remain the fastest-expanding market globally.

Consumer activity in the Association of Southeast Asian Nation markets is expected to “lose steam” this year due to weakening confidence and the effects of tightening monetary policy.

In a statement, S&P Ratings said that despite this, the region will still be the “fastest–expanding consumer market in the world.”

“High underlying economic growth and supportive labour markets will prevent a sharp slowdown in consumer activity,” S&P Ratings said.
