He discussed how markets may be under-pricing geopolitical risks associated with the US election in November and the toxic political environment resulting from the impeachment process.He also pointed to the escalation of tensions in the Middle East which could result in an increase in global oil prices.

This annual conference has been held every January and it is a great way to kick off the year.
