From US-China tensions to declining birth rates, global warming, cyber-crime and housing shortages – a complex array of issues is changing the outlook for economies and investment markets. By understanding the interaction of such forces, practitioners can better manage risk and uncertainty, and design portfolios capable of improving the financial well-being of individuals.
