BurgherGray Year In Review

As we start the new year, it’s an opportune moment to look back on the rollercoaster year that was 2023. This year, globally, we’ve witnessed a mosaic of domestic and global challenges that have fueled economic, legal, social, and political uncertainties for many, including our clients. These challenges ranged from high interest rates and global inflationary pressures to anxiety-filled USD LIBOR sunset, ongoing geopolitical shifts, land mark SCOTUS decisions reversing previously well settled law regarding reproductive rights and DEI programs, major wars with global implications, and the continuing evolution in the way we live and work. These domestic and global currents have touched each of our lives, reshaping or otherwise impacting our celebrations, interactions, and perspectives. We are proud to have helped our clients navigate many of them. Despite these challenges, however, I remain a cockeyed optimist heading into 2024, a position informed in part by the moments of triumph, joy, and connection we experienced in 2023.
