The End of US Exceptionalism and a Catalyst for Change
Are we seeing the beginning of the end of US exceptionalism and hegemony and what does this mean for future economic growth, risk premia and returns across asset classes? How should you manage your investment strategy and portfolios to provide for resilience at these times of fundamental change? What does the increased geopolitical risks and latest round of conflicts mean for your Investments?
Our speakers focused on:
- What impact are the ongoing trade tariff policies and now further conflicts likely to have on markets?
- How should schemes be allocating now with the potential risk of higher inflation?
- With rising debt levels, how should you re-consider investing in US fixed income markets and will this lead to further increased pressure on USD?
- How will this broadly impact US and global equity markets and what new risks/opportunities arise?
- Where should you look to provide resilience in portfolios and diversification?
- Can investing in asset classes such as convertible bonds provide resilience and allow for better risk adjusted returns and diversification?
- How should you be considering these changes when setting your strategic asset allocation and investment strategies?
- Where are the risks and opportunities across asset classes for Institutional investors today?
