Summary
The military action on Iran has sent ripples across global capital markets — and the full impact is still unfolding. Join us for an in-depth analysis of how equity and debt markets, and Leveraged Finance markets have reacted in the weeks since, and what investors and practitioners across the GCC need to watch closely.
Topics include:
- Inflation pressures and the Fed's shifting calculus
- Impacts on bond yields, equities, and the dollar
- Market sentiment amid sustained geopolitical uncertainty
- Longer-term implications for mortgage rates and consumer demand
We'll also examine what the conflict means for the banking industry at large, and whether the M&A pipeline — and investment bank dealmaking revenue — can weather the uncertainty ahead.
