ABANA is pleased to share with you BNY Mellon’s thought leadership publication, Investment Outlook 2017, Globalization Under Siege – 2017: Challenges, extremes and political change.
Will the year ahead see greater volatility, extremes and more political change?
For some, the answer is most definitely yes, while others believe there could be a smoothing out of markets following a disruptive and uncertain 2016.
What many do agree on though is that 2017 will likely see a continuation of protectionist sentiment – a reverse of the decades of globalization once heralded as the way to multi-lateral prosperity.
