Global ad market set for 8% growth in 2022: Zenith
Global advertising expenditure is forecast to grow 8% this year, according to Zenith’s latest Advertising Expenditure Forecasts report, published today, with Australia’s total ad market forecast to grow by 8-9% in 2022.
This represents a minor downgrade from the 9.1% growth rate Zenith published in December 2021. Growth will be supported by the Winter Olympics, mid-term US elections and soccer World Cup, which for the first time will take place in the most advertising-intensive period of the year in the run-up to Christmas. Faced with this tough comparison, growth will slow to 5.4% in 2023, before the Summer Olympics and US presidential elections help boost it to 7.6% in 2024.
