2. Commentary:?

When uncertainty leads, the most critical role of risk management in the postmodern paradigm is ensuring that an organization has enough funds to make value-adding investments. —Yael

We entered the year expecting growth to slow slightly from its exceptional levels primarily because of temporary post-pandemic supply constraints leading to the inflation spike in the context of robust demand. Investors have had a difficult first half of the year. In sharp contrast to the favorable market conditions in 2021, 2022 has so far been the worst start in terms of performance for equities and fixed income markets in at least 30 years.

The inflation spike was primarily the result of temporary post-pandemic supply constraints with still-strong pressures in demand. Despite the slowdown in growth, the global economy should avoid a recession this year, but a mild downturn could be ahead in 2023.?

As stock interest rates rise and markets tumble, it’s been reported that investors fear private equity. We can anticipate that corporate margins will remain elevated, even if they have peaked, and earnings growth will remain positive. Yet they are plenty of reasons to include private assets as a diversified, long-term investment strategy.?

This series is a preview of the “Sustainability strategic planning workshop” released on July 4th. Stay tuned.
