State of the World, What Do the January’s Outlook Reports Say?

The beginning of the year is always a moment for many reports to come out on the future of the world and its geopolitical order. What have we read this January? Here is a short summary of the foresight outlooks we have found online by security and risks analysts’ provider and geopolitical think-tanks – WorldAware, Eurasia Group, SIA (Security Industry Association)?-, but also by insurance and reinsurance companies (AXA, Allianz etc.), the World Economic Forum Global Risks Report 2019, among other sources. These reports are mostly based on expert judgements and the monitoring of early warning indicators on a day-to-day-basis.
