It was a pleasure to moderate the grand finale of the CER/AIG geopolitical risk series.

We are grateful to @AIGemea for their support over the last five years, and to the many speakers, especially from the @GermanyDiplo and @Der_BDI who featured in our discussions.

Happy to contribute my thoughts to this CER analysis of the implications of Trump's second term for Europe:

Trump’s policies promise to usher in an era in which the US economy continues to expand strongly whilst hurting growth in the rest of the world – especially in large exporting economies like the eurozone and China. 🇺🇸 🇪🇺
