The Global Forecast, a key summary of global conditions published by G4S Risk Consulting’s Intelligence & Advisory Services Team, predicts increasing tension between major world powers.
G4S Risk Consulting releases Global Forecast for H2 2019
In the first weeks of 2019, G4S Risk Consulting’s Intelligence and Advisory Services predicted a rise in citizenship - people being more proactive in their national discourse to determine the type of future they want - in the first half of the year.
Before protests in Hong Kong, Sudan, and Russia, and prolonged campaigns driven by political polarisation and single issues such as climate change, expert analysts published the G4S Global Forecast 2019, identifying key issues and likely trends that have since materialised.
In the second half of 2019, the trade war between the US and China and security challenges spanning from Iran and Afghanistan to Venezuela and North Korea, are likely to increase tension as the year progresses, as US attention is diverted across several fronts.
