The global economy is fragmenting, and it could lead to a hit of $6 trillion to GDP worldwide. That's more than the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic or the 2008 financial crisis.

So what exactly is causing this fragmentation, and can the impacts be mitigated?

Finance industry experts join us to explore the forces of fragmentation and examine a new report by the World Economic Forum and Oliver Wyman, which quantifies its impact and details the consequences on the global economy and emerging markets in particular.

Guests:

Matt Strahan, Private Market Initiatives Lead at the World Economic Forum

Daniel Tannebaum, Global Anti-Financial Crime Practice Leader at Oliver Wyman

Anne Walsh, Managing Partner and Chief Investment Officer of Guggenheim Partners

Daniel Mminele, Chairman of Nedbank

As the World Economic Forum publishes its latest Chief Economists Outlook, Maersk's Head of Macro & Market Insights Ilaria Maselli gives her view on the state of the global economy.

The closure of the Strait of Hormuz, "the aorta of global fossil fuel trade", is one of the "biggest crises" in the history of capitalism, with huge implications for economies around the world, Maselli says.

And we discuss how the impact of the Hormuz crisis compares to the shock that the COVID pandemic imposed on the world, in terms of economic growth and inflation.
