This week, our Q1 update reveals markets experiencing an uptick with notably low volatility.

This past week saw eventful moves in markets, largely driven by central bank actions. The most unexpected was the Swiss National Bank's decision to reduce rates, going against the broader trend. However, this did not have a major impact on markets overall.

Despite a relatively calm week in global markets, the focus was on higher-than-expected inflation figures.

Global markets were relatively flat this week after an initial dip, recovering slightly towards the end of the week.
