The global economy has suffered several shocks in the past five years.

The trade war between China and the US, the covid-19 pandemic, the disruptions to trade and supply chains, the war in Ukraine, the sanctions on Russia, the high inflation and the stock market crash. With a looming global recession, threats to energy and food supply, and ever more disastrous effects of climate change, how can investors protect themselves and best position their portfolios to ride out the continuing storm? 

In this series of podcasts we will speak to private bankers, family offices, wealth managers, economists and risk experts about strategies to protect financial assets against current threats and potential future geopolitical and economic shocks. We will explore how deglobalisation and high interests have affected investors' demand for financial products and how the financial industry is adjusting to the new reality. We will also discuss how investors can seize the opportunities a rapidly transforming world brings.

Shelter from the storm: Investing in the era of uncertainty is produced by Economist Impact and sponsored by EquitiesFirst.
