War returns to the DRC

with Brendon Verster, Theo Klein and Jervin Naidoo | Online | February 13, 2025

Conflict has escalated in the eastern DRC after March 23 Movement (M23) rebels seized Goma – the largest city in the eastern DRC and North Kivu’s capital – at the end of January. Unlike their brief 2012 occupation, M23 is now better armed, backed by Rwanda (despite Kigali’s denials), and facing exhausted Congolese forces. With peace talks failing, tensions threaten to spill over into Burundi, Rwanda, and Uganda, risking a third Congo war. Join us as we explore the conflict’s political and economic impact on the DRC and its neighbours.

EMs’ year ahead – time to pick up a few gems as the steam roller passes by

with Gabriel Sterne and Lucila Bonilla | Online | December 8, 2022

In our annual outlook for global emerging markets, we will highlight those EMs most vulnerable to weak global demand and a strong dollar in 2023. Better news is that tail risks associated with very high import prices will fade; and we will show which economies and markets stand to benefit most from falling inflation, ahead-of-the-curve policies and any resumption in capital inflows. Finally, we will assess implications of global policy impotence to deal with this wave of sovereign distress.
