The Strait of Hormuz remains one of the most important energy corridors in the world. It is the only sea route from the Persian Gulf to the open ocean, it serves as the primary maritime route for oil exports from the Gulf. Any disruption to traffic through the strait would have implications for oil markets and regional stability.While some Gulf states have developed pipelines to bypass the strait, the volume of oil transported by sea is far greater, and for many countries, including key Gulf exporters, the waterway is essential to maintaining trade. China is the largest buyer of oil that travels through the strait, making it particularly exposed to any disruption.Iran itself relies on the Strait of Hormuz to sell its oil and any blockage of the route would likely damage Iran's own economy and could strain relationships with regional neighbours.Despite past threats to close the Strait of Hormuz, the waterway has remained open, including during the tanker wars of the 1980s, but any disruption could have a big impact on global oil supplies.Picture Credit: Morteza Nikoubazl/NurPhoto via Getty ImagesContributors: Camille Lons, Deputy Head of the Paris office of the Council on Foreign relations Elisabeth Braw, Senior fellow with the Atlantic Council's Transatlantic Security Initiative in the Scowcroft Center for Strategy and SecurityJacob P.

Did you know the United States Army is older than the United States?  The Army has its origins in 1775 at a time when the colonists had a distrust of a standing permanent army like the British employed in the colonies.  As such, it was a not a permanent army.  The War of 1812 showed our country the need for a permanent national army. In the ensuing years, the United States Army has fought a Civil War, two World Wars and protected American interests around the world.  To share further history and the impact of our Army, we are honored to have a very distinguished guest.  Col. Bryan Gibby graduated from the United States Military Academy in West Point in 1993 and first served with the 101st Airborne Division.  After two deployments to Iraq, a 3-year stint with NATO and completing his M.A. and Ph.D degrees, Col. Gibby returned to West Point where he now serves as the Deputy Head for the Department of History.

The Private Equity market continues to evolve as investors navigate economic uncertainty, limited liquidity, and trade policy shifts. With challenges from tariffs and moderating distributions, investors are seeking ways to manage risks while uncovering opportunities for growth. But how can private equity firms leverage their agility to capitalize on these dynamics? And what innovations are reshaping access to this asset class?   On this episode of Disruptive Forces, host Anu Rajakumar is joined by David Stonberg, Deputy Head of NB Alternatives and Global Co-Head of Private Equity Co-Investments, to discuss how private equity firms are responding to market pressures. Together, they explore the impact of tariffs, the role of liquidity solutions, and innovations like evergreen funds that are making private equity accessible to retail investors.    Check out our recently published Private Markets Outlook, Private Equity: Capitalizing in the Current Climate to read more about why we believe private equity can help shield investors from negative tariff impacts while delivering long-term portfolio diversification.    This communication is provided for informational and educational purposes only and nothing herein constitutes investment, legal, accounting or tax advice, or a recommendation to buy, sell or hold a security.

Often excluded from ESG portfolios on ethical grounds, the defence sector is at the forefront due to current geopolitical tensions. In this episode of Fixed on ESG, we consider whether defence companies should be included in ESG investments, the rising strategic importance of defence, investment barriers, and the potential for ESG-conscious investors to reconsider their exclusion policies. PGIM Fixed Income's James Malone, CFA, ESG Specialist, hosts this discussion with Katharine Neiss, PhD, Deputy Head of Global Economics and Chief European Economist. Recorded on May 6, 2025.

Critical shipping routes around the world, from the Panama Canal to the Bosphorus Strait, hold strategic importance for global trade. As a result, these chokepoints are often caught in the crosshairs of geopolitical competition. But in a new age of economic warfare, invisible chokepoints are also emerging. The dominance of the US dollar, economic sanctions, and tariffs on imported goods can all be leveraged to achieve political goals. Meanwhile, nations are laying out plans to increase defense spending—potentially altering the outlook for productivity, industrial activity, and economic growth. With economic warfare becoming a lasting feature of the investment environment, new winners and losers based on country, region, sector and asset class could emerge. This episode of The Outthinking Investor explores how economic warfare, national security concerns, and friend-shoring in global trade are creating new implications for investors to consider. Our guests are: Edward Fishman, senior research scholar at Columbia University's Center on Global Energy Policy and author of the new book, “Chokepoints: American Power in the Age of Economic Warfare” Katharine Neiss, PGIM Fixed Income's Deputy Head of Global Economics and Chief European Economist Jeff Rathke, President of the American-German Institute at Johns Hopkins University and former American diplomat Do you have any comments, suggestions, or topics you would like us to cover?

For far too long, healthcare performance indicators have centred on inputs—like funding and infrastructure—or processes—like hospital admissions or waiting times—without adequately capturing the experiences and outcomes of the people receiving care. The OECD's PaRIS Survey upends that dynamic, shining a light on how older people with chronic conditions feel about their care, how healthy they really feel, and how their everyday lives are affected. The latest figures are now out: with over 107K patients in over 1800 primary care practices across 19 countries, the survey highlights that living longer doesn't always mean living better, especially if care experiences are poor and chronic conditions aren't managed in a way that reflects patients needs. In this episode of the Behind the Numbers podcast, our host Ashley Ward is joined by OECD Health Economists Frederico Guanais and Michael van den Berg to explore the work behind this innovative survey. Learn how policymakers, healthcare providers, and patients themselves can use these data to drive more people-centred healthcare. Host Ashley Ward, Director's Office Advisor and Communications Manager (OECD Statistics and Data Directorate) Guests Frederico Guanais, Deputy Head of Health Division (OECD Directorate for Employment, Labour and Social Affairs) Michael van den Berg, Senior Health Economist (OECD Directorate for Employment, Labour and Social Affairs) To learn more about policy area: https://www.oecd.org/en/about/programmes/patient-reported-indicator-surveys-paris.html To learn more about the OECD, our global reach, and how to join us, go to www.oecd.org/en/about.html To keep up with latest at the OECD, visit www.oecd.org/ Get the latest OECD content delivered directly to your inbox!

Metropolitan Yevstratiy, the Deputy Head of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine's External Church Relations, accuses the Russian Orthodox Church of being nothing more than an arm of the Kremlin, doing the bidding of President Vladimir Putin, the proverbial 'wolf in sheep's clothing'. In this case, religious vestments, and telling Russian soldiers fighting against Ukraine that if they die in battle, they will immediately go to paradise, all sins forgiven. In 2019, Ukraine's Orthodox Church was granted independence from the Russian Orthodox Church. It caused an uproar in Moscow. Kirill and Putin refused to recognize the authority of the Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew in Constantinople (modern day Istanbul, Turkey) that authorized Ukraine's identity as an Autocephalous Church. That Russia is engaged in a Holy War is not in question. But it's Patriarch Kirill in Moscow, says Yevstratiy, that claims the Russian aggression against Ukraine is for the "Liberation of Ukrainians from Godless West... From the evil." And to, "bring to Ukraine the light and truth."   On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, Metropolitan Yevstratiy also reveals a scarier version of the war in Ukraine; that Putin and Kirill want to make Moscow the third and final Rome, labeling the rest of Christianity, Catholics and Protestants alike as heretics and pagans. As President Trump and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth look for diplomatic solutions to the war's end, Yevstratiy and His Beatitude Metropolitan Epiphany, the leader of the OCU, are faithful that God Himself will bring an end to the battle.

Recent stock market movements have focused attention on the risks of over allocating to an equity index dominated a small group of companies in the same sector. This is currently the case with the preponderance of 10 (tech) behemoths in the US S&P500. Raul Leote de Carvalho, Deputy Head of the Quant Research Group, and Chief Market Strategist Daniel Morris put this concentration into context. They conclude that as long as market valuations rise in synch with profitability, the companies' index dominance can be justified, but there's no margin for error. Raul suggests two ways of managing the related risk of high volatility.For more insights, visit Viewpoint: https://viewpoint.bnpparibas-am.com/Download the Viewpoint app: https://onelink.to/tpxq34Follow us on LinkedIn: https://bnpp.lk/amHosted by Ausha.

After heart disease cancer is the leading cause of death in the US. Forty percent of Americans will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. Timely diagnosis and treatment of cancer has always been a concern made worse by the COVID pandemic and the ongoing problem of un- and under-insurance. Another reason for concern is the increasing use of networked-based social media sites used to advertise bogus cancer cures, particularly to Generation Z, or those 27 or under, who increasing use social media sites as de facto search engines. Dr. Baker's recent research reveals health disinformation is rife on TikTok via its “For You” algorithm that directs users to fake cures and conspiratorial content via primarily five themes including personal anecdotes, conspiracy theories and spiritual messaging. (Devoted listeners may recall I interviewed Harvard's Dr. Susan Linn two yrs ago next month re: her 2022 book, “Who's Raising the Kids?” a critique of the “kid tech” world's pernicious influence on children.)Prof. Baker's, article, “Link in Bio: Fake Cancer Cures, Radicalization and Disinformation on a Democratic Society,” is at: https://osf.io/preprints/socarxiv/pqs5e.

The name of the episode is taken directly from the title of a recent report bearing the same name released by the Deputy Head of the National Energy Security Fund. It shows that the sanctions slapped on Russia by the G7 have backfired spectacularly and have created massive opportunities with other nations who share a desire to bypass the marketplaces controlled by the American empire. The 2024 BRICS Summit in Kazan wrapped up in late October with a directive to find a way around the Western-led SWIFT banking system, with a CBDC proposed as the solution. Putin also teased a mocked-up BRICS banknote to prep the world for the possibility of a regional gold-backed currency sometime in the future.
