  • Changing Times INVESTING for a NEW WORLD ORDER?
    SUMMER 2018 Changing times INVESTING FOR A NEW WORLD ORDER? alliancetrustsavings.co.uk Welcome to the latest edition of Taking Stock. Changing times If this edition had a theme tune it might be something like Bob Dylan’s 1960s classic The Times They Are A-Changin’. Or at least that’s how it feels to many of us. US protectionism, Trump-style diplomacy, North Korea, Iran, Syria, Russia, China, Brexit, Facebook, Cambridge Analytica. These have all been headline makers for 2018 so far, and some have undoubtedly been implicated in increased market volatility. Around the world the political and economic power of nation states has always ebbed and flowed. Alliances are made and undone. And the fortunes of individual corporations rise and fall. But the question for investors today is, are we just looking at a variation on a theme of business as usual for the world’s established economic power base? Or is something else going on? Are we on the cusp of some more fundamental change in the world economic order? Keeping ahead of the curve Views on this matter because searching for growth necessarily involves looking ahead and understanding where the longer-term opportunities and threats are likely to be. In this edition of Taking Stock our expert contributors explore the potential implications of the developing picture. From how it’s influencing investment decisions today, to steps any investor can take to make the most of their money in uncertain times. As always, I hope you will find it an informative read. If you have any feedback or suggestions for future editions, please get in touch.
