I expect interest rates to rise, but not to the extent of a worst-case scenario due in no small part to the fact that sovereign balance sheets are even more indebted than at pre-crisis levels. So the minor issue of having to service the national debt will balance the desire of central banks to rewind quantitative easing too quickly.

Resolution: To get down to 90kg – the same resolution as last year and the year before that.
