KEEP IN BRIEF
- The world is constantly changing, and many of these shifts have the potential to alter the investment landscape.
- While some of these changes can be temporary and fleeting, others can be powerful, transformative forces that shape how society is organised at a fundamental level.
- BlackRock has identified five megatrends that will be relevant to investors and the future of the global economy.
- In this infographic we explore the second of these megatrends; Climate change and resource scarcity.
Capital at risk. The value of investments and the income from them can fall as well as rise and are not guaranteed. You may not get back the amount originally invested.
