Heightened tensions – Quantifying the impact of higher tariffs, crisis in the Middle East, and other global scenarios
Date: 18 March
What would a period of heightened global tensions mean for the global economy?
This webinar explores the potential fall-out from trade war and a period of energy market disruption. We also highlight other key risks quantified in our Q1 2025 Global Scenarios Service, including the potential for a market correction, and review the evidence from our very latest Global Risk Survey.
