The global "printing press" is accelerating: in 2026, the money supply will reach
The global financial system is facing a rapid increase in the money supply, as 2025 was one of the largest years in terms of injections of funds into the economy, second only to the two previous crises: the COVID-19 pandemic and the economic boom of 2017. Analysts believe that the current policy is not enough, and next year promises even more aggressive financial strategies.

The pace of "second" money is contributing to the growth of economies, although it is leading to inflation in many countries, which is already exceeding targets. Experts compare this period with important moments such as the fiscal stimulus in 2020 and the coordinated global injection of money in 2017, which contributed to sustainable economic growth. In 2026, the injection of funds is expected to increase due to significant government spending.
This situation has two sides to it for investors and consumers: on the one hand, rising asset values in the markets, and on the other, higher inflation, which could reduce the purchasing power of savings. It will become unprofitable for people to keep money in cash if its value depreciates rapidly. Investors should be cautious and take into account the risks associated with inflation in a growing money supply.
