Finance as a Force for Good
Ben White, Kate Barton, Mark Machin, Jeffrey M. Solomon, Andrew Weinberg
Panelists discuss a widening divergence between ebullient financial markets and weak economic fundamentals, driven by $27 trillion in global fiscal stimulus that is largely diverting into asset reflation rather than immediate consumption. The discussion highlights how regulatory shifts toward revenue generation and carbon pricing, alongside the rise of family offices integrating sustainability values, aim to redirect capital toward real economy growth and climate innovation. Experts emphasize that future stability requires pivoting from financial engineering to investing in people and middle-market firms while consolidating fragmented ESG reporting to ensure long-term value creation.

Global Capital Markets 2019
Alison Mass, Mark Attanasio, Elif Bilgi Zapparoli, Sir Michael Hintze, Mark Machin, Joseph Naggar
A panel of financial experts analyzes how geopolitical populism driven by intergenerational debt disparities creates policy vacuums that favor China's expanding market share and capital inflows. Experts identify rising structural risks in credit markets, including declining covenant protections and demographic headwinds, while debating the shifting landscape of public-to-private capital migration and the distortion of valuation logic by passive investing. The discussion concludes with specific strategic recommendations, favoring distressed debt and private equity for the short to medium term, alongside warnings about US dollar strength and potential pandemic impacts on global GDP.
