Geopolitical Guidance: The New, New World Order and How to Hedge It

After enjoying a rather tranquil 2017, risk markets have been roiled by volatility in recent times thanks to a combination of geopolitical risk factors brought on by recent tariffs announcements, possible regulatory overhang on social media tech companies’ privacy concerns and other macro factors such as central banks’ quantitative tightening and rising fiscal spending. What does 2018 hold for investors as they grapple with a whole host of macro fundamentals that appear to offset rather strong corporate fundamentals globally? CFALA is proud to present a presentation from Mr. Terry McCarthy to discuss global macro issues and its potential impact on financial markets.
