Introduction
2015 is upon us and the turbulence has already begun.
2014 was another year of an uneasy calm interrupted by sudden bouts of abrupt market volatility. We were surprised how risk appetite remained so high despite emerging and a high level of risk especially from the geopolitical sphere. These we covered in our Review of 2014.
This irrationally exuberant, risk appetite may continue in 2015 but we suspect that it is as likely to come to a shuddering halt with renewed volatility on global financial markets.
The sharp falls seen in stock markets in recent days may be a taste of what may transpire in 2015. As may be the tragic events in Paris.
There are many unresolved risks which were present in 2014 and indeed in recent years which did not come to the fore and impact markets. As Greece has shown again in recent days – the Eurozone debt crisis is far from resolved and there remains an underappreciated risk of sovereign crises in other major industrial nations.
