Market Reprioritization Through Macroeconomic Intelligence

Client Background 

The client is a leading multinational manufacturer of industrial equipment, serving a diverse set of industries across more than 40 countries. Its revenue model depends heavily on long-cycle infrastructure investments and procurement-intensive supply chains, particularly in Asia, Latin America, and Eastern Europe. 

Client’s Challenge 

As inflation accelerated, currencies fluctuated, and fiscal policies shifted across key markets, the client realized that traditional macroeconomic datasets no longer provided the speed or context required for strategic decision-making. They needed real-time, business-relevant intelligence to quantify exposure, prioritize investments, and adapt procurement plans to changing conditions. 
The brief to Mordor Intelligence was to create a structured yet contextual macroeconomic framework that could be integrated directly into the company's planning tools and support executive discussions on market and investment priorities. 

How Mordor Intelligence Helped 

• Client-Aligned Indicator Framework: Developed a customized macroeconomic indicator set mapped to the client’s key geographies and business units, focusing on metrics directly linked to infrastructure cycles and procurement exposure.
• Expert-Validated Insights: Engaged regional economists and policy experts to validate assumptions, refine datasets, and identify gaps in publicly available economic information.
• Scenario Planning for Capital Allocation: Built baseline and alternative macroeconomic scenarios aligned with the client’s internal capital allocation and market entry frameworks, supporting risk-adjusted planning.
• Ongoing Executive Briefings: Delivered quarterly briefings for senior leadership, translating economic and policy shifts into direct business implications. Provided on-demand expert consultations to evaluate emerging macro risks and opportunities. 

Key Findings 

• Several high-growth markets exhibited near-term volatility due to tightening monetary policies and inflationary pressures.
• Procurement-heavy regions showed greater exposure to commodity price fluctuations and currency risks.
• Redirecting capital toward lower-risk markets aligned more closely with forecasted infrastructure investment cycles.
• The client's internal prioritization framework lacked a structured macro-risk layer prior to Mordor Intelligence’s engagement.
