  • Anders Fogh Rasmussen – Chairman, Rasmussen Global and Former Secretary General, NATO
    Anders Fogh Rasmussen – Chairman, Rasmussen Global and former Secretary General, NATO Anders Fogh Rasmussen has been at the centre of European and global politics for three decades as Secretary General of NATO, Prime Minister of Denmark, Danish Minister of Economic Affairs, Danish Minister for Taxation and a leading Danish parliamentarian. During the Danish Presidency of the European Union in 2002, he played a key role in concluding accession negotiations with 10 candidates for EU- membership. In 2009 Anders Fogh Rasmussen was appointed NATO’s 12th Secretary General between 1 August 2009 and 30 September 2014. His tenure in NATO marked a fundamental transformation of the Alliance. He oversaw the Alliance’s operational peak with six operations on three continents including Afghanistan, Kosovo and Libya, as well as counter-piracy along the Somali coast, a training mission in Iraq and a counter-terrorism operation in the Mediterranean. He developed a new Strategic Concept, which sets the Alliance’s core future priorities and he launched “Smart Defence” to help nations make more efficient use of their resources through more multinational cooperation. In response to Russia’s aggression against Ukraine, he initiated a “Readiness Action Plan” to strengthen the collective defence to an unprecedented level since the end of the Cold War. On 1 October 2014, Anders Fogh Rasmussen established Rasmussen Global. The firm advises clients on a wide range of issues such as international security, transatlantic relations, the European Union, and emerging markets. Rasmussen Global draws on an extensive network of leading policy experts, former officials, business executives and consulting firms across the globe.

  • Biden's Climate Policy: Global Follower Or Leader?
    1 Biden’s climate policy: global follower or leader? TYPE OF DOCUMENT: POLICY BRIEFING CLASSIFICATION: EXTERNAL January 19, 2021 President Biden vows an ambitious climate policy, leading the US transition to 100 percent clean electricity by 2035, and demanding - in his first year - that Congress legislate for reaching zero emissions by 2050. These efforts, however, might be constrained by differences within the Democratic camp and mid-term elections in critical, fossil fuel-dependent states like Pennsylvania. Yet, even under a cautious scenario, Biden will bring about significant change: on Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance (ESG) reporting standards; re-instating Federal regulations and increasing Federal funding; and – to a lesser extent – on carbon taxation. Under this middle-of-the road scenario, the US and Europe will see a greater level of convergence even if in parallel ‘climate competition’ between great economic powers will intensify. Investment in green technologies will gather pace in the US. Biden’s Climate Plan Key points of Biden’s climate policy include: • Committing two trillion dollars in accelerated investments in green infrastructure over his term, in transitioning the auto industry, power generation, housing, agriculture, and innovation. • Increasing federal procurement by 400 billion dollars in his term to purchase clean energy inputs and establish an Advanced Research Projects Agency for the development and rapid deployment of new, green technologies. • Creating one million jobs in the auto sector, securing large American producers such as General Motors, Fiat Chrysler and Ford, and investing 400 million dollars into the industry to support the adoption of electric vehicles and the transition from petrol-powered vehicles used by federal institutions.

  • Foreign Investment Screening and the China Factor New Protectionism Or New European Standards?
    1 Foreign Investment Screening and the China Factor New protectionism or new European standards? TYPE OF DOCUMENT: MEMO CLASSIFICATION: EXTERNAL SOURCES: consultations with officials in Brussels and key European capitals; open sources Nov 16, 2017 Executive Summary • Chinese businesses have increased and diversified their direct investment at an exponential rate throughout Europe. In Germany alone, the increase was ten-fold in 2016 compared to 2015. • Chinese FDI include both state and private acquisitions of strategic infrastructures as well as smaller investments aimed at acquiring cutting-edge technological know-how. • The surge in Chinese investment raises growing concern among governments about the loss of Europe’s technological edge and the transfer of dual-use technologies to China. • Europe has begun to awaken to the need for an EU-wide foreign investment screening mechanism. The Commission has put forth a proposal but one that is much less ambitious than what is already in place in other G7 states. Only 12 out of 28 member states have their own screening mechanisms in place. • The new EU proposal has entered the legislative process in the European institutions. However, it faces a coalition of free-marketeers and recovering southern EU economies dependent on Chinese FDI which oppose a strict screening mechanism at the EU-level. Introduction Since the 2008 financial crisis, Chinese investments in the EU have jumped tenfold, from roughly €2 billion in 2009 to almost €20 billion in 2015. Last year alone, China’s foreign direct investment (FDI) in Europe reached over €35 billion. That is another 77 % increase compared to 2015 and a more than 1,500% increase compared to 2010.1 Meanwhile, European investments in China have decreased by 25% in 2016 and the trend is set to continue this year due to regulatory barriers and a lack of reciprocity.

  • Democracy Perception Index 2018
    Democracy Perception Index 2018 June 2018 Democracies are losing the hearts and minds of their citizens, world’s largest study on trust in government finds The Democracy Perception Index (DPI) is a research project conducted by ​Dalia Research​, in collaboration with the ​Alliance of Democracies​ and ​Rasmussen Global​, to measure citizens’ trust in government. The DPI survey data ranks countries on how effectively they are ​perceived​ to be delivering core democratic benefits in the eyes of their citizens, including: 1) Political Voice: ​Sense of participation in politics 2) Public Interest: ​Trust that government is working for the people 3) Free Speech: ​Freedom to express opinions 4) Information: ​Access to balanced and neutral information The DPI is the largest single survey conducted at once: covering 125,000 respondents for nationally representative results across 50 countries, from June 6th to June 18th, 2018. This represents over 75% of the world’s population and 75% of the world’s GDP. The Findings The Democracy Perception Index (DPI) finds a majority of people around the world feel like they have no voice in politics and that their governments are not acting in their interest (51% and 58% respectively). In particular, they have little faith that their government is formed “by the people” and works “for the people”. Perhaps most surprisingly, this public disillusionment is higher in democracies than in non-democracies.1 Almost two thirds (64%) of people living in democracies thinks their government “rarely” or “never” acts in the interest of the public, compared with 41% of people living in non-democracies. When asked if they think their voice matters in politics, over half (54%) of citizens living in democracies say their voices “rarely” or “never” matter in politics versus 46% in non-democracies.
