Financial Market Certificate 2021
December 14, 20212022 LFMA’s Summer Event
June 1, 2022
Following an exceptionally positive response to our regular newsletters and podcasts, next to the virtual conference, we have organized a dinner for selected member of LFMA.
During the dinner, Alastair explored, inter alia:
- Russia’s invasion of Ukraine as a ‘game-changer’ as well as the breakdown in established trade flows;
- Claiming that this “the end of globalization” is as hyperbolic as Francis Fukuyama’s “end of history” in 1992 (if history did indeed end then, it has surely risen Lazarus-like in 2022);
- The ongoing tectonic shifts in geopolitics that inevitably drive similar shifts in economics, including trade flows, which are bound to trigger yet more volatility and uncertainty in financial markets.
