The four furies of geopolitics: states vs. markets
In this video series we explore four “furies” of geopolitics that will impact the business environment in the coming years. Control Risks’ Jonathan Wood examines the key macro trends and changing dynamics that make the world a less certain and more complex place for businesses to operate in. In this second of our four furies, Jonathan examines the issues that pit states against markets.
This video will cover:
- Reputational and political risk of social media platforms
- The ability of threat actors to operationalize social media
- Technology and automation shifting economic power from labour to capital
