Trumponomics and Geopolitical Chess Webinar

As markets brace for the crucial first month of the administration, we analyze the immediate policy initiatives that have been announced and the potential market impact. While the past three years saw markets primarily driven by macroeconomic concerns, geopolitics now take center stage in shaping market dynamics and investment outcomes.

Escalating tensions with Russia and Iran are poised to become the primary catalysts for market movements. This seismic shift in risk dynamics suggests a potentially volatile year ahead, with two significant market corrections anticipated.

In a highly unpredictable geopolitical world, it’s no secret that the process of constructing a portfolio accurately to capture an investment thesis is going to be prone to errors. To give investors a fighting chance to navigate 2025 with any kind of certainty, they will need to make stress testing their new best friend and regularly seek opinions from different risk models.

In this webinar, Investment Decision Research Analyst Olivier d’Assier will captain this effort by examining some practical scenarios through the lens of the Axioma risk models and stress testing tools.

Tune into this webinar if you want to understand:

• What those significant market corrections could be
• Which countries and sectors may be most exposed
• Why changes in market sentiment are more important than ever
• Where market risks could come from – across currency, style, country and interest rates
• How to manage those risks

Who should attend:

• Portfolio managers needing to take immediate action
• Risk managers preparing for policy shifts
• Investment strategists planning first quarter moves
• Asset allocators adjusting to a new regime
