One response to “Investors face ‘economic paradigm vacuum’ post-neoliberalism ”

  1. Mike Clark

    Excellent that top1000 funds have people like Eric (“The Origin of Wealth”) Beinhocker helping to lead the neural annealing needed.

    I commend the “Cognicist Theory of Capitalism” which is very aligned in this developing thinking. It is already featuring in the work of the IFoA (actuaries) Planetary Solvency Taskforce. Understanding that societal risk and financial risk are different paradigms is a good start.

    Try this. What happens when 100s of citizens are dying of thirst because they cannot afford the price of water which the owners of data centres can?

    Simple. The citizens simply storm the data centres. Paris and 1789 can teach us a lot, even if history rhymes, without repeating.

How investors are balancing the risks of investing in defence

As European countries increase defence spending, allocators are weighing up the risk and opportunity of allocating more to the sector.
