The challenges corporations, entrepreneurs and governments face in this new age are unprecedented and daunting. With technology and environment-led disruption progressing at pace, legacy investment decisions are increasingly being relegated to the dustbin of sunk costs. Even the most established corporations and nations, as well as today’s most promising entrepreneur-led start-ups, are at risk of extinction.
​Absent aggressive, large-scale investment into transformative new initiatives, companies and nations are, by default, checking themselves into the economic and commercial equivalent of a hospice.
​New investment is no guarantee of survival. For as quickly as new transformational initiatives appear, they are at risk of disappearing, displaced by the next “big idea”. ​ The “S-curve” is steepening as never before.
In this new age, every company is a perpetual start-up, every advanced economy at risk of losing its comparative advantages. At the same time, every start-up, every new market entrant has the potential to rapidly emerge as the incumbent. Every developing nation has the potential to become the next “tiger” economy.
This is an age of high risks and high returns. For corporations, entrepreneurs, governments willing and able to perpetually adapt, the opportunities may be boundless.

A Perfect Storm
A technology revolution, accelerated by climate change, is driving a reconstruction of the global economy. A remarkable financial market revolution is promising to deliver the long-term capital companies need for investment and governments need to manage reconstruction’s social and economic costs. Nations have a once in a century opportunity to leap-frog peers to emerge as leading technology-led, export-oriented net zero economies.
Technology
The 4th industrial revolution
Corporations the world over are investing heavily in AI, autonomy and automation, 3D printing, advanced robotics, new materials, revolutionising manufacturing, transportation and delivery systems, uprooting long-established global supply chains. Technology is eroding the comparative advantages enjoyed by nations with high levels of wage adjusted labour productivity, creating new opportunities for nations the world over to attract investment and leap-frog peers to advance.
A climate emergency
Swathes of legacy infrastructure, energy and industrial capacity are set to be mothballed, dismantled, written-off, relegated to the dustbin of sunk costs as the global economy adapts to and mitigates the effects of climate change through a gargantuan, time-constrained reconstruction exercise costing tens of trillions of dollars. Investors and lenders have boundless opportunities to create shareholder wealth as a brand new, net zero global industrial economy takes form.

The rise of ESG
A new values-driven investment asset class, focusing not only on financial returns but also environmental and social impact, human rights, freedom and transparency is expected to comprise, according to Bloomberg, one-third of global assets under management by 2025. ESG’s growth was recently evidenced by the funding commitment to climate initiatives made at COP26 by the GFANZ group of leading financial institutions that collectively manage $130 trillion of assets.
