Build Resilient Portfolios by Managing Geopolitical Risks – New York Life Investments – 2.4.20

Summary:

Now On Demand.

The international landscape is fragile, requiring a determined effort to manage and prosper. Strategic disengagement of the U.S. and Chinese economies, the uncertainties surrounding Brexit and the European Union, and disruptive risk―which seems permanent in the Middle East―weigh heavily on macroeconomic risks.

At New York Life Investments, we are built on a legacy of managing volatility. Therefore, we have partnered with John Sitilides, diplomacy consultant to the U.S. Department of State and head of Trilogy Advisors, to help you better understand what these geopolitical shifts mean for your clients’ portfolios.

Join us for a live webcast to discuss:

• Strategic disengagement of the U.S. and Chinese economies
• Growing regional and global threats, particularly from Iran
• Europe’s internal governing crises and EU enduring uncertainties
