Turning turbulence into tailwinds
2024 is the election year with over 60 countries going to the polls. As well as being a barometer for democracy, we may see geopolitics reshape global trade and economies, creating new risks but also creating new investment opportunities.
During our conference, we will explore what might change in the coming years and how agile investors can best position portfolios and then look further forward and see whether this (new?) cohort of political leaders amends the longer-term investment thesis.
