PwC Survey Finds Global CEO Confidence at Five-Year Low, India Shows Strong Optimism

PwC's 29th Global CEO Survey reveals that only 30% of CEOs worldwide are confident about revenue growth in the next year, marking a five-year low amid geopolitical uncertainty, cyber risks, and rapid technological change, especially AI. While 56% of companies report no financial gains from AI, those applying it broadly see benefits. Indian CEOs are notably more optimistic, with 77% expecting strong domestic growth and India rising to the second most preferred investment destination after the US.
