The future of investing isn’t just about numbers—it’s about embracing a seismic shift in how markets, macro forces, and innovation like AI reshape the landscape. In this episode, Jean Boivin of BlackRock Investment Institute and Greg Hamilton, CIO of a Financial Holding Corporation, reveal how a “fundamentally different” macro environment is transforming asset allocation, risk management, and the very fabric of portfolios.
They unpack the five mega forces driving this change, from AI and energy transition to geopolitical fragmentation, and explain why traditional strategic asset allocation no longer holds. You’ll hear why private markets, infrastructure, and income-generating assets are becoming more important—and what it means to invest with curiosity and adaptability in an environment where uncertainty is the only constant.
