“The bill will need to be paid: so financial repression will continue. As a result, we could see a world of ‘helicopter money’, where central banks further finance governments to stimulate growth. Debt moratoriums may not be ruled out.”

“Geopolitical shifts: China’s influence globally may rise. The East Asian region is likely to recover faster than others. There will be challenges for the Eurozone, short and long-term.”
