About this session
Capital is on the move like never before. As geopolitical fault lines harden, monetary regimes shift, and private markets swell past public ones, the old channels for allocating capital are breaking—and trillions are being redirected in the process. Where money flows, who controls it, and how quickly it can be deployed are all being rewritten. This isn't a market cycle; it's a structural rupture. Learn how capital is being reallocated across regions, asset classes, and public-private lines, where the breakages in traditional deployment are creating risk and opportunity, and what it takes to move decisively in a fractured landscape.
