FII PRIORITY Compass survey of 61,200 people across 32 countries reveals the pressures, expectations, and opportunities shaping the global agenda
RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, October 27, 2026 – The Future Investment Initiative (FII) Institute today released the fifth edition of the FII PRIORITY Compass, revealing that the cost of living remains the world’s leading concern for the fifth consecutive year, underscoring the growing economic pressures influencing family decisions, trust in institutions, and expectations of technology.
Drawing on the views of 61,200 adults across 32 countries, representing 66% of the global population, the report provides a unique snapshot of the issues people believe should command the attention of investors, business leaders and policymakers.
HRH Princess Dr. Maha Bint Mishari Bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, CEO of FII Institute, said:
“The FII PRIORITY Compass reveals a world united by shared concerns and unmet needs. For five consecutive years, the cost of living has remained the dominant global priority, affecting people’s choices, aspirations and opportunities. The Compass serves as a practical guide for investors and decision-makers, helping direct policy and capital toward solutions that generate sustainable returns while improving lives.”
The findings highlight a widening gap in global outlook. Nearly half of respondents in the Global South believe the world is moving in the right direction, compared with only 15% in the Global North, revealing starkly different perceptions of progress and opportunity.
The survey also points to a growing consensus around artificial intelligence. While a majority say AI has already improved their lives, support for stronger global governance is overwhelming, with 85% calling for international rules to regulate its development and use.
As automation becomes more present in everyday life, attitudes remain pragmatic. Respondents are broadly comfortable with robots performing household tasks, yet enthusiasm declines when technology takes on more sensitive caregiving roles.
The research further reveals the impact of economic pressure on family aspirations. More than half of respondents say living costs and debt are preventing them from having the number of children they would like, highlighting the long-term social consequences of financial insecurity.
Digital safety also emerged as a significant concern. A majority support stronger safeguards for young people online, including verified parental consent requirements for children using social media platforms.
Despite widespread perceptions of political bias in traditional media, most respondents continue to view established news organisations as reliable sources of information, reflecting an increasingly complex relationship between trust and credibility in the information age.

About the FII PRIORITY Compass
The fifth edition of the Compass was originally scheduled to be launched during the tenth edition of the Future Investment Initiative conference, which has since been postponed. The Institute draws on the Compass to shape its agenda around the priorities of citizens worldwide, with this edition focusing on financial pressures and growing demands for safeguards governing emerging technologies.
Conducted in partnership with Ipsos between April 24 and June 5, 2026, the online survey gathered views from 61,200 adults aged 18 and over in 32 countries, collectively representing 66% of the global population.

New THINK report features contributions from Brookfield, JD.com and Visa, examining how businesses can scale AI responsibly and deliver measurable results
RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, October 12, 2026 – The Future Investment Initiative (FII) Institute, a global nonprofit foundation with an investment arm and one agenda, Impact on Humanity, has launched “Transforming Business: AI in the Enterprise,” a new THINK report examining how artificial intelligence is reshaping investment, business operations and the future of work.
The report explores how organizations can move from experimentation to deployment, translating AI investment into improvements in productivity, customer experience and financial performance. It identifies workflow redesign, workforce development and responsible governance as essential to achieving lasting value.
Featuring contributions from FII Institute partners Brookfield, JD.com and Visa, the publication brings together perspectives on portfolio value creation, trusted payments, retail and logistics, and the coordination of AI agents across enterprise systems.
Key takeaways include:
- AI adoption is expanding, but scaling remains a challenge. Research cited from McKinsey shows that 88% of organizations use AI in at least one business function, up from 78% in 2024. While 62% are experimenting with AI agents, 23% are scaling agentic AI in at least one function.
- Enterprise AI spending is accelerating. The report cites IDC estimates of $400 billion in global enterprise AI spending in 2026, highlighting the importance of connecting investment to operational results.
- Security and trust are central to adoption. Deloitte research cited in the report identifies data privacy and security as concerns for 73% of respondents, followed by legal, intellectual property or regulatory compliance at 50%.
- Investors are prioritizing execution. Brookfield has identified more than 800 AI use cases at different stages of execution and established an AI Value Creation Office with more than 30 investment, operations and technology professionals.
- AI is increasingly integrated into physical operations. JD.com reports implementing AI in over 3,000 scenarios across retail, logistics, healthcare, industrial supply chains, and (food delivery – remove) more.
- AI is supporting trusted payments at scale: Visa reports having several hundred AI models in production, supporting more than 100 products across the payments ecosystem. Its contribution highlights the need for spending limits, approval thresholds and clear permissions as AI agents begin making purchases.
As AI agents move from answering questions to completing defined workflows, the report calls for clear accountability, human oversight and measurable business outcomes. It also examines how infrastructure choices shape the cost, control and resilience of enterprise AI.
Through its THINK pillar, FII Institute connects research, investment and innovation to advance practical solutions and create a positive Impact on Humanity.

New report explores five gaps in the EV financing architecture and highlights the potential for Gulf sovereign capital to catalyze investment across emerging markets
RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, October 6, 2026 – The Future Investment Initiative (FII) Institute and Arthur D. Little (ADL) have launched “E-Mobility Transition: Global EV Financing,” a report examining how better financing mechanisms can support the next phase of electric vehicle (EV) adoption.
The report identifies five interlocking gaps preventing available capital from translating into EV deployment at the required pace: consumer finance, charging infrastructure, risk sharing, supply-chain concentration, and sovereign capital deployment.
The report builds on FII Institute’s broader work exploring sustainable growth, emerging market development, and the future of investment systems, with a focus on how capital can be mobilized more effectively to address global challenges and accelerate economic transformation.
HRH Princess Dr. Maha bint Mishari bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Chief Executive Officer of FII Institute, said: “The global EV transition has reached a point where access to appropriate financing is becoming as important as access to technology. The opportunity now is to use capital more effectively – bringing together sovereign investors, development institutions and private capital to create structures capable of supporting investment at scale, particularly across emerging markets.”
Joseph Salem, Partner and Travel, Transportation & Hospitality Practice Lead, Arthur D. Little Middle East, said: “Our analysis suggests that the EV transition does not primarily require new pools of capital; it requires better mechanisms for deploying the capital that already exists. The Gulf has several of the ingredients needed to help bridge that gap – patient capital, industrial investment and logistics capabilities. Connecting those strengths with appropriate risk-sharing and financing structures could help make EV investment across emerging markets more scalable and commercially investable.”
Key takeaways from the report:
- EV sales are growing as costs fall. More than 20 million electric cars were sold globally in 2025, accounting for one in four new cars. Battery pack prices fell 8% to approximately USD 108 per kilowatt-hour, while nearly 70% of battery electric cars sold in China were cheaper than the average conventional car.
- Emerging markets are advancing, but investment remains uneven. EVs accounted for roughly 40% of new car sales in Vietnam and 25% in Thailand in 2025, compared with around 10% in the United States. Emerging market and developing economies excluding China represent around two-thirds of the world’s population but receive less than 30% of global energy investment across the wider energy system.
- Access to finance remains a barrier. Around 1.3 billion adults worldwide lack a financial account. Scaling asset-based lending and addressing refinancing constraints could help households and fleet operators access EV credit.
- Charging infrastructure requires substantial capital. More than USD 524 billion in cumulative charging investment may be needed through 2035. Underwriting early charging demand could help attract investors.
- Targeted guarantees can support deployment at scale. India’s approximately USD 412 million Payment Security Mechanism protects electric bus operators against payment default by state transport authorities, supporting a program targeting more than 38,000 electric buses.
- Coordinated financing could unlock commercial funding. The report proposes combining guarantees, first-loss capital, local-currency protection and industrial partnerships through an integrated platform focused on vehicle and charging credit.
