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.

He specialises in analysis of geo-strategic and economic risk factors – specifically developments in terrorism, the Middle-East and Asia, and developments in US Foreign Policy – and how these factors affect global and regional security and the global economy.
