#geopolitics [2/2] With the Republic of Singapore, only 3 countries accounted for 52% of total imports to Melanesia in 2018. All the more reason to reaffirm the presence and lasting economic competition of these two political players in this part of the Pacific.

#geopolitics [1/2] On June 22 and 23, the twenty-second summit of the Melanesian Spearhead Group (MSG) met in Port-Vila, Vanuatu. Two states in particular were invited to its discussions: the Commonwealth of Australia and the People's Republic of China, the 1st and 3rd largest exporters of goods to the GFLM in 2018 (36% of the group's total imports).

🙅‍♀️ Averting #ExportRestrictions becomes crucial given current #geoeconomics and #RaceForGreenIndustries. They are often not WTO-conform & could lead to a vicious cycle of fear & retaliation.
Do: Increase #transparency & #predictability between and #diversity of trade partners.

Geopolitical tensions >> property politics getting very fraught.

With the Annual Meeting in Davos in full swing (which I am not at), I unpacked The Path to 2025 section of WEF's Global Risk Report through the lens of corporate #ESG.

The near-term risks called out were ones that have made headlines and will likely continue to:
🍳Cost-of-living crisis
📉Economic downturn
🚢Geoeconomic warfare
🌪️Climate action hiatus
🤜Societal polarization

There is a lot for companies to consider in these areas, but leaders should pay attention to their interconnected nature. The confluence could lead to a new polycrisis that they can either deal with on their terms or when it pops up, which may be too late.

Sweden said it has found what it believes to be Europe's largest known deposit containing more than one million metric tons of rare earth oxides.
This could be a game changer for Europe given its 99% dependence on rare earths and minerals from China. #geoeconomics

This map is the result of my previous research for the Chinese imports in the South Pacific. I was particularly interested in Pacific and American situations.
