How should leaders position capital and strategy in a world where geopolitics influences markets?
Join us for a timely virtual briefing with YPO’s Strategic Learning Partner, Goldman Sachs, featuring Andrei Banu, Head of EMEA Client Solutions within the Investment Strategy Group.
Drawing on his experience advising institutional and private investors on global asset allocation, Andrei will discuss how today’s geopolitical tensions are reshaping the economic outlook and market dynamics—particularly across Europe.
In this one-hour session, YPOers will explore how evolving global developments impact growth, inflation, and market stability, and how regional and asset-class fragmentation creates both risks and opportunities.

Take-home value includes:
• Gaining insight into key trends across regions and asset classes.
• Building clearer, more informed perspectives to guide leadership decisions.
