This Global Volunteer Week, thousands of S&P Global colleagues came together with a shared purpose: to make a meaningful impact in communities around the world.
From mentoring future talent and supporting local nonprofit organizations to environmental initiatives and community service projects, our people dedicated their time, skills, and energy to causes that matter.
Across countries, cultures, and causes, the week highlighted the dedication and energy our people bring to volunteering. We're incredibly proud of our people and grateful for the impact they’re making in the communities where we live and work.
From @EnergySPG: Dozens of North American private startups and established companies, state agencies and academic institutions are racing to develop and commercialize an advanced nuclear reactor. Whether these companies and the advanced nuclear sector at large can succeed depends on numerous factors, including the capital plans of large tech companies, favorable federal policy and the strengths of individual reactor designs.
So which companies are currently winning the race to commercialize an advanced reactor design?

Global LNG demand is expected to grow to 800 billion cubic meters/year, or about 28.2 Tcf/year, by 2031 from 600 Bcm/year in 2026, with the United States remaining the world's largest supplier, according to a new LNG market security report from the International Energy Forum.
Over the next five years, the largest increase in LNG exports comes from the US, where new supply is expected to grow at one of the fastest rates globally, according to the latest market report from the IEF, an intergovernmental organization that promotes global energy dialogue.

The latest official data point to global inflation cooling slightly in June and July from a recent peak in May, but the latest PMI data hint that it could rise further again in the near term. Concerns stem around renewed upward price pressures from energy and supply chains, principally linked to the ongoing war in the Middle East.

Sustainability in 2026 is a story of resilience — how stakeholders balance urgent and sometimes competing priorities in the face of disruption, uncertainty and rapid change.
War in the Middle East, growing AI-driven power demands and increasingly frequent and severe extreme weather events are dramatically reshaping the balancing act between energy security, energy affordability and energy sustainability. In 2026, it is increasingly clear that the three parts of this energy trilemma can work in tandem.

Today we are announcing that S&P Global has entered an agreement to acquire OpenZeppelin.
Onchain finance is growing from an emerging market into core financial infrastructure, and the standards and rails our team and community built are becoming the rails of global finance. OpenZeppelin smart contracts facilitated over $37 trillion in value transferred, with the vast majority of the largest DeFi protocols, blockchain networks, stablecoins and tokenized funds relying on them.
With S&P Global, we expect to accelerate the impact of onchain finance, backed by more than a century of trust in global markets, benchmarks, and risk frameworks.
To our clients and to all the users of OpenZeppelin open source tools:
• OpenZeppelin Contracts and all our open source applications and tools remain open source, free, and publicly maintained on GitHub. Building open source standards stays a core priority.
• Audits, engineering work, and ecosystem programs continue with the same team, brand, quality, and customer experience, with what will be the added benefit of S&P Global's research capacity, market data, and institutional reach.
For the last decade, OpenZeppelin has set the security standard for onchain finance. Today begins a new chapter for that mission, together with one of the most trusted names in global markets.

China's electric vehicle penetration could reach 75%-80% by 2030, up from more than 60% currently, accelerating transport fuel displacement and forcing refiners to increasingly rely on capacity rationalization, petrochemical integration and exports, Fairy Wang, vice president of Sinopec's Economics & Development Research Institute, said at APPEC on Sept. 10.
Wang said China has already surpassed the government's 2035 target of 50% EV penetration, reaching the milestone about a decade early.
China's EV penetration rate reached a record high in August, with EVs accounting for 60.6% of new vehicle sales.

In this episode of The Decisive, Kristen Hallam speaks with Ken Wattret, Vice President of Global Economics at @SPGMarketIntel, who answers frequently asked questions shaping the macroeconomic outlook: why sovereign yields have been rising, whether AI-driven productivity gains could lower inflation and policy rates, and what a weaker US dollar could mean for the global economy. This conversation was recorded in May 2026, and the questions are still top of mind today.

From @SPGMarketIntel: The number of active satellites in orbit jumped over 17 times from 2010 to nearly 18,000 devices by July 2026, driven mostly by the Space Exploration Technologies Corp. (SpaceX) Starlink constellation of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) internet satellites, has created a promise of fast, hassle-free broadband internet everywhere, while at the same time attracting a crescendo of opposition from the academic and space communities, especially as projections point to over 100,000 objects orbiting the planet in the medium term.

The energy industry is moving beyond artificial intelligence pilots and proof-of-concept projects as companies seek to integrate AI into daily workflows and deliver measurable business value, although significant challenges remain, speakers at APPEC said Sept. 10.
Rather than treating AI as a stand-alone innovation project, organizations are increasingly focused on applying the technology to practical challenges across trading, risk management, operations and decision-making.

The breakdown of trade talks and tariff escalation between the U.S. and Canada—with the implementation of Canada’s countertariffs on some U.S. goods starting this week—mark a significant deepening of tensions between the two closely-linked economies that could weigh on growth and credit conditions, particularly in Canada.
We forecast that the tariffs, if sustained, could shave 0.2-0.5 percentage point (ppt) off Canada’s GDP growth in the next four quarters and add 0.2-0.3 ppt to inflation. The macro effects on the U.S. economy of Canada’s retaliatory tariffs will likely be marginal.

Asia's energy costs are likely to remain elevated for some time as disruptions to tanker flows and constrained refining capacity keep supply chains under pressure, even though crude oil prices have yet to fully reflect the market's security risks, according to industry executives at the APPEC 2026 conference in Singapore Sept. 9.

The future of AI isn't about whether you build or buy agents. It's about whether you can trust them to deliver outcomes.
Artificial intelligence is rapidly moving from experimentation to enterprise adoption. Across financial services, organizations are exploring how AI agents can improve productivity, accelerate decision-making and help teams navigate growing operational complexity.
As momentum builds, many firms are grappling with a familiar question: should they build their own AI agents or leverage ready-made solutions?

Global Volunteer Week is underway at S&P Global, bringing our people together through hundreds of volunteer opportunities around the world to support causes that strengthen our communities and create meaningful impact.
From environmental initiatives and local nonprofit collaborations to skills-based volunteering that helps prepare the next generation for an AI-enabled workforce, every act of service makes a difference.
Some teams have already rolled up their sleeves and started making an impact. Here's a glimpse of what’s happening, and we can't wait to see what our people accomplish in the week ahead.
S&P Global is deepening its commitment to digital assets.
Through S&P Global Ventures, we've led a strategic investment in Kaiko's Series B extension — the global independent leader in digital asset market data, indices, and data infrastructure — building on an already close strategic alliance.
This builds on real momentum between our two organizations:
- The first tokenized major financial benchmark (iBoxx U.S. Treasuries Index, on-chain with Kaiko).
- The new S&P Kaiko Digital Asset Indices, a co-branded suite for 24/7 digital asset markets.
- Kaiko's growing global footprint, now supporting 250+ financial institutions and regulators worldwide.
As on-chain markets mature, trusted data and benchmarks are becoming the connective tissue between traditional and decentralized finance — and we're investing to help build that bridge.

From @SPGMarketIntel: August, according to PMI survey data, with a jump in service sector payrolls accompanied by a further revival of factory jobs. The improvement was a reflection of the need to meet rising backlogs of work, with companies boosting productive capacity to meet customer demand amid an easing of corporate uncertainty.
Especially noteworthy jobs growth was reported in India and the US, but European and mainland China’s hiring trends have also improved in recent months. By sector, the labour market improvement is being led by financial services and technology firms.
