Harris Vs Trump: 55% CFOs Believe Vice-President Likely To Win Election, Although Ex-President Is Better For Economy

In a recent survey, a majority of chief financial officers (CFOs) predict that Kamala Harris will win the upcoming presidential election, despite believing that Donald Trump would be better for the economy.

Despite the belief in Harris’s likely victory, 55% of CFOs consider Trump better suited to handle inflation and the economy, while only 17% believe Harris has a superior economic plan. Key issues for CFOs include inflation, interest rates, tax policy, and regulation.

The survey also indicates that 74% of CFOs expect a divided government post-election, with 45% predicting Democrats will control the Senate and Republicans the House. Another 29% foresee a flip in control but still expect a divided Capitol Hill.

Both candidates have been actively promoting their economic agendas. Harris has released an 82-page economic blueprint, while Trump has promised new tax incentives for corporations. The survey reflects the ongoing debate about the best approach to economic growth and stability.
