Geopolitics and country politics matter at least as much as economic fundamentals to the economic performance of markets worldwide.
- What will be the market impact of the populist wave sweeping through Europe and the US?
- How will China manage a precarious economic slowdown?
- How will Emerging Market governments respond to the expectations of new middle classes?
Investors need the analytical tools to identify, assess, and manage political risks. This 2.5 hour exclusive executive education program -- structured and directed by Eurasia Group -- will help investment professionals identify political risks and opportunities that may have a profound impact on future investments and strategy. Participants will gain an understanding of the interactions of politics, economics, and markets, enabling them to anticipate the likely outcomes of key geopolitical and country-level issues that affect their decisions. Register by 12/18 and receive 25% Early Bird Discount |
