After navigating two years of a global pandemic, financial markets are left to grapple with an old, familiar foe: inflation. This year, the western world has experienced inflation rates not seen since the 1980s, putting upward pressure on interest rates, increasing the likelihood of a recession and sending the markets to a freefall. How should we as investors approach the now strangely foreign phenomenon? How does the world’s largest sovereign wealth fund – NBIM – handle the uncertainty?

The high inflation can partly be attributed to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, which has increased tensions between the East and the West. With growing worldwide polarization and threats of geopolitical conflicts, can the past be a guide to the future? How will our relationship with China shape our future? And how can we as investors position for this?

Finally, as the world also struggles with an energy shortage, we must again rely on fossil fuels in order to secure our electricity demands, hence temporarily setting aside climate goals. What financial risks are there to losses in natural diversity? How does the leading Nordic sustainability funds integrate sustainability into private markets?
