Assessing geopolitical risk can appear overwhelming and unmanageable at times. The issues range from broad global patterns of competition, such as the evolving U.S.-China relations, down to local socio-political evolutions that can change regulatory environments in key resource-producing countries. Navigating geopolitical risk and opportunity is a growing field, and increasingly important for businesses and internationally-engaged organizations, not just governments and the military. Thinking in frameworks allows geopolitical analysts to contextualize day-to-day information volatility and identify systemic versus cyclical changes, providing a more stable way of looking at an uncertain future. In this episode of the Applied Geopolitics podcast, Rodger Baker speaks with geopolitical strategist Matt Gertken about methods for assessing geopolitical risk.
