The Forces Redefining the Global Economic World Order

At the World Economic Forum in Davos, CEO Nir Bar Dea explains why geopolitics and technology have become the dominant forces shaping the global economy. He outlines a once-in-a-century shift away from globalization toward what Bridgewater calls modern mercantilism, occurring alongside an accelerating technological arms race that is already driving markets beneath the surface. Nir also discusses China’s role in this new world order, arguing that in an increasingly fragmented global system, China and broader Asia play an essential role in portfolio diversification. Nir was joined in conversation by: Jean-Noël Barrot, Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs, France Mina Al-Oraibi, Editor-in-Chief, The National Radosław Sikorski, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, Poland Moderator: Mirek Dusek, Managing Director, World Economic Forum
