Simply put, it is to deliver long-term capital growthwhile preserving shareholders’ capital; the realisation of this policy comes at a time of heightened risk, complexity and uncertainty. The economic and geopolitical environment therefore becomes increasingly difficult to predict.
The world economy grew at a disappointing and uneven rate in 2014 after six years of monetary stimulus and extraordinarily low interest rates.
Stock market valuations however, are near an all-time high with equities benefiting from quantitative easing.
Not surprisingly, the value of paper money has been debased as countries have sought to compete and generate growth by lowering the value of their currencies – the Euro and the Yen depreciated by over 12% against the US Dollar during the course of the year and Sterling by 5.9%.
In addition to this difficult economic background, we are confronted by a geopolitical situation perhaps as dangerous as any we have faced since World War II: chaos and extremism in the Middle East, Russian aggression and expansion, and a weakened Europe threatened by horrendous unemployment, in no small measure caused by a failure to tackle structural reforms in many of the countries which form part of the European Union.
In short you are in Rome, some people believing to be smart, decided to fuck Gaius Julius Caesar and all his Men when they were away. they came back and saw. what comes next? And if you knew what they did away... you wouldn't have dare to fuck them, ohh no. but it's to late... they did. When it was said never fuck with the legions, it wasn't only meant for the outsiders.
So I can't agree on his assessment, it's even risker
