The return of Donald Trump to the White House in 2025 comes on the back of extreme violence in the Middle East, led by Israel and with great financial and political investment from the United States. What impact will Trump's second term have on the Middle East region, and what can we learn from his policies in his first term as President of the United States? Between 2017- 2021 several major policies helped alter regional dynamics. From the Abraham Accords to the withdrawal from the 2015 Iran Nuclear Agreement; from a strengthening of ties with the Saudi monarchy to both airstrikes and calls for troop withdrawal in Syria.

The 2024 edition of the AIG Global Trade Series explores the theme of ‘Back to the Future: A New Era of Managed Trade?'Both the digital transition and decarbonisation ambitions have heightened demand for specialty metals, including nickel and lithium for electric vehicles and rare earths for advanced microelectronics. But as advanced economies' access to these metals is becoming increasing critical, supply security concerns are increasing: production of critical metals is concentrated in a small number of locations, while geopolitical tensions are rising.  The race to produce and acquire these minerals is boosting investment in Asia-Pacific, changing the relationship between the region and the global economy. Focusing on Indonesia and Australia, what role do producer countries play in the global supply chain for critical metals? How are these countries responding to economic and geopolitical and sustainability pressures? And how are countries in the region handling growing pressures towards fragmentation seen elsewhere in the advanced technologies global supply chain?Panellists:        Professor Ian Satchwell, Adjunct Professor, Sustainable Minerals Institute, The University of QueenslandDr Alloysius Joko Purwanto, Energy Economist, ERIAModerator:      Dr Rem Korteweg, Senior Research Fellow, Clingendael InstituteThis podcast episode was recorded on 2 October 2024. Related content from GTS Contributors:Report | Reclaiming Leadership: Australia and the global critical minerals raceReport | Policies and Infrastructure Development for the Wider Penetration of xEVs in ASEAN Countries – Phase II ___ The Global Trade Series is a collaboration between AIG and the following international organisations with leading expertise on global trade: the Aspen Institute Germany; CEBRI - the Brazilian Center for International Relations; Chatham House (UK); CITD - the Center on Inclusive Trade and Development at Georgetown University Law Center (US); the Clingendael Institute (The Netherlands); Elcano Royal Institute (Spain); ERIA – the Economic Research Institute for ASEAN and East Asia (Indonesia); ISPI - the Italian Institute for International Political Studies; the Jacques Delors Institute (France); RIETI - the Research Institute of Economy, Trade and Industry (Japan); and the St. Gallen Endowment for Prosperity through Trade (Switzerland).The views and opinions expressed in this podcast series are those of the speakers and do not reflect the views, policy or position of American International Group Inc, or its subsidiaries or affiliates (AIG).

The 2024 edition of the AIG Global Trade Series explores the theme of ‘Back to the Future: A New Era of Managed Trade?' Four years on from Britain's departure from the EU, politicians on both sides of the Channel continue to grapple with its consequences. In recent months, the election of the Labour government in the UK and the reelection of Ursula Von der Leyen as President of the European Commission have opened a new more constructive chapter in the complex process of negotiation over the UK's relationship with its neighbours.  For the UK, mitigating Brexit's negative effects on trade and business remains a central goal in the reset of relations. For the Commission, trade issues are increasingly wrapped up in a broad concern, vividly captured in the recent Draghi report, about the EU's competitiveness and its long-term economic growth.  What are the political and economic parameters within which the UK and EU are working on a reset?  Where are the red lines and where the areas of Win-Win? And can a new deal help address the growth challenge on both sides of the Channel?  Panellists:        Georgina Wright, Senior Fellow and Deputy Director for International Studies, Institut Montaigne  Dr Nicolai von Ondarza, Head of Research Division, EU/Europe, German Institute for International and Security Affairs (Stiftung Wissenschaft und Politik, SWP)  David Henig, Director, UK Trade Policy Project, European Centre for International Political Economy (ECIPE) Moderator:      Rem Korteweg, Senior Research Fellow, Clingendael Institute  This podcast episode was recorded on 26 September 2024.  Related content from GTS Contributors:  Paper | Extraterritoriality: a Blind Spot in the EU's Economic Security Strategy | Institut Montaigne  Paper |The UK and the EU: New Opportunities, Old Obstacles | SWP  Report | Negotiating Uncertainty in UK-EU Relations: Past, Present, and Future | ECIPE ___  The Global Trade Series is a collaboration between AIG and the following international organisations with leading expertise on global trade: the Aspen Institute Germany; CEBRI - the Brazilian Center for International Relations; Chatham House (UK); CITD - the Center on Inclusive Trade and Development at Georgetown University Law Center (US); the Clingendael Institute (The Netherlands); Elcano Royal Institute (Spain); ERIA – the Economic Research Institute for ASEAN and East Asia (Indonesia); ISPI - the Italian Institute for International Political Studies; the Jacques Delors Institute (France); RIETI - the Research Institute of Economy, Trade and Industry (Japan); and the St. Gallen Endowment for Prosperity through Trade (Switzerland).  The views and opinions expressed in this podcast series are those of the speakers and do not reflect the views, policy or position of American International Group Inc, or its subsidiaries or affiliates (AIG).

Attendees came from as far afield as New Zealand, Hawaii, Asia, North and South America, Bermuda, as well as a large European contingent, plus as you'd expect numerous London marketplace leaders in ILS and reinsurance.

This was the second session of the day from our Artemis London 2022 conference, held on September 6th, 2022.

The group discussed how instruments such as parametric cat bonds fit into ILS fund investment portfolios and how managers think about underwriting them.  On parametric cat bonds, Volpi of Leadenhall Capital Partners explained that, "Overall, premium is also important and ultimately you need to be paid for the risk, while the type of trigger is also an important factor when we look at these."  Ossenbrink of Twelve Capital added, "We believe for an institutional investor, or other investor, it's an ideal solution and really something we should try to grow."  Bennett, from the World Bank Treasury explained how the institution looks at the ILS market when bringing cat bond deals to market, "We will do everything we can to put it in a package that works for you modelling wise.  "We think we're bringing you something very valuable, the investor community. We're bringing you highly-diversifying risk, in an absolutely secure package, as it's the World Bank issuing these bonds.  "We think we're providing the market something extraordinarily valuable so we always ask you to work with us and have some flexibility."

World leaders, CEO's and the global elite are in Davos, Switzerland to lecture others on how to live their lives. Panellists at the World Economic Forum (WEF) are discussing a wide-range of issues, including how to fight climate change, promoting equity and other leftist causes. There have been a lot of discussion about the WEF in recent weeks, including its impact on Canada. But rather than take the concerns of Canadians seriously, the legacy media has characterized any criticism of the WEF as a conspiracy theory – including Conservative leadership candidate Pierre Poilievre.  Over the weekend, Poilievre told his supporters that he would ban cabinet ministers from attending the WEF. Journalists in the legacy media immediately descended on Poilievre and accused him of pushing conspiracy theories. What's really going on at the WEF? What are the conspiracy theories and what are the facts? On today's episode of the Candice Malcolm Show, Candice discusses why Canada's legacy media is wrong to ignore and chastise those that take issue with the WEF. Plus, True North's Andrew Lawton is on the ground at Davos and joins the show to tell us what it's like at the conference. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
