Heightened geopolitical tensions, evolving monetary conditions and rapid technological change are reshaping the global financial landscape. Tobias Adrian, financial counsellor and director of the monetary and capital markets department at the International Monetary Fund, joins OMFIF to examine the key findings from the IMF’s latest Global Financial Stability Report and the implications for global markets and financial stability.
The roundtable explores the impact of the war in the Middle East on financial markets, including risks linked to energy prices, tighter financial conditions and market volatility. It also assesses the growing role of private credit and nonbank finance in emerging markets, alongside vulnerabilities stemming from leverage and capital flows.
