Hagai Segal is an award winning academic, consultant and analyst, columnist and keynote speaker specialising geo-strategic and economic risk particularly focussed in the Middle East and Asia.
What Are You Ignoring? Why Only Looking At Economic Risk During The Economic Downturn Damages Your Business
Political decisions and events have never had more influence on global business and the global economy than they have today.
With governments having bought large stakes in the big banks and multinational corporations, with the growth and importance of the sovereign wealth funds, with the increasing political interference in the supply and price of natural resources and in business in general across the globe, and with the role of state actors in global terrorism, responsible businesses ignore the decisions of politicians and government at their peril.
Political crises are no longer rare, they are common, and their economic impact cannot be ignored, especially during a credit crunch. Thus knowing what politicians are doing and going to do – and what the strategic, economic and social consequences of these decisions will be – has never been more important to the business leader.
Hagai, an expert in how global political and strategic issues affect the world – and the business world and global economy in particular – will examine these key political and strategic issues and their implications for your business and the economy, and how an understanding of these matters can give your business an advantage in these uncertain times”.
