WEBINAR
When geopolitics move markets
1 HR
This webinar examines how geopolitical tension and inflation are shaping global equities, drawing on past crises to highlight where resilience may emerge and how investors can position portfolios beyond the noise.
As headlines drive volatility, it can be hard to separate noise from genuine risk. Join us for a discussion on how rising geopolitical tension, inflation drivers and shifting global power dynamics are influencing global equities, and what investors can learn from past periods of conflict and market stress. Drawing on historical market analysis and our latest thinking on today’s investment landscape, we’ll examine how previous oil shocks and geopolitical crises played out across markets, where resilience may emerge this time, and how investors can think about positioning portfolios for the road ahead.
Attendees who are financial professionals will receive CPD credit within two weeks following the live webinar.
