At our most recent Family Investment Conference in London, CEO Investment Management discussed the implications of the current global economic landscape on world economies.
We talked about the global poly crisis,
which is when different crises all around the world interact
with each other in a sort of loop effect.
And the takeaway for investors is not so much
to analyze the poly crisis, but to look at the winners
and losers from these various crises.
And if one does a dispassionate tour of world economies,
you can clearly see both winners and losers.
America in a way is very culpable, if you like, in terms
of contributing to global crises, uh, whether it's
through misadventure or through trade policy
or strong dollar policy or any number of other items.
But there are also major beneficiaries from the crisis.
And therefore we see a key theme for us is that this period
of exceptionalism in America, uh, we expect to continue
and America to remain a winner, whereas regions like such
as China, Europe,
and the uk, we think are struggling
to be winners from the crisis
and are tending to both contribute to it as well
as suffer from it.
