About this listen

The conflict in the Middle East is colliding with an already fragile global economy. While much of the immediate focus has been on Europe and the US, the second-order effects for Asia may prove more enduring — from energy security and capital flows to critical supply chains and financial stability.

In this episode, Flint experts examine how renewed instability in the Middle East could reshape the outlook for Asia’s major economies, investors and financial centres.

They explore which economies are most exposed to energy price and supply shocks, how the US, China, India and Russia are recalibrating their positions, and what firms should watch as geopolitical dynamics influence capital allocation across technology, finance and critical industries.

Flint Partner Matthew Chan chairs a discussion between:

  • Heidi Venamore PSM​, Senior Adviser and former Australian
    Ambassador to the UAE and Jordan.
  • James Crabtree, Senior Adviser and former Financial Times foreign correspondent and Executive Director of the Institute for International Strategic Studies in Asia.
