Capital in Motion: Repositioning at Scale for the Next Cycle | Global Conference 2026
Sara Eisen, Marcie Frost, Ron O'Hanley, Harvey Schwartz, Daniel Simkowitz

As the global economy pivots to prioritize defense and compute capacity, market participants are redefining portfolio allocations to focus on US innovation hubs, robust Asian markets, and rigorous underwriting standards to navigate rising capital demands and potential labor displacement.
