When economic conditions shift, the challenge isn’t just managing numbers — it’s understanding which structural forces will shape the next decade.
In this conversation, Prof. Avi Weiss explores the long-term trends influencing Israel’s economic trajectory. The discussion focuses on fiscal sustainability, productivity gaps, cost-of-living pressures, concentration in high-tech, demographic shifts, and the evolving demands on public systems.
Rather than reacting to short-term developments, this session examines the deeper structural questions: where growth can realistically come from, what constraints may limit it, and which reforms could meaningfully alter the path forward.
The goal is not to forecast headlines, but to provide a clear framework for thinking about long-term economic resilience and planning.
