Paramount
Significant factors to consider going forward. The rebound in tourist arrivals only came back to 2019 levels since June, with September around 17 percent higher. Providing there are no reversals, companies highly dependent on the sector will enjoy a sizable bounce for the next nine months compared to the lower business generated from last year to April this year. Banks will profit from increased interest rates, and insurance companies will enjoy increased interest revenues. The same applies to the entertainment industry, as the sector only opened up after March this year.
