Market & Investment Risk Insights Webinar (MAC)

In an unusual move, funds leaving the American stock market in the wake of “Liberation Day” bypassed the customary flight-to-quality cascade through Treasury bonds and USD cash and instead left the United States altogether.  

The euro and Swiss franc were among the major beneficiaries amid the biggest simultaneous selloff of the US dollar and shares since 2002. European governments saw their borrowing rates decline as a result, while US Treasury yields remained range bound, as traders assessed the opposing effects of the tariff announcements on consumer prices and economic growth.  

This also posed a conundrum for the Federal Reserve whether to keep monetary conditions tight to reign in persistent inflation or to cut rates to support an ailing economy, with neither option likely to be welcomed by markets.

Join Christoph Schon in this webinar to hear how recent market shifts have affected the risk profiles of global multi-asset portfolios and what risk and portfolio managers need to prepare for over the remainder of the year. We’ll also demonstrate how the suite of Axioma solutions can be used to model these scenarios and help strengthen your risk management framework for the months ahead.
