Surviving the Global Political Crisis

For almost a decade now, Governments around the world have been in turmoil. Minority leaderships, ever increasing debts, austerity measures and political upheaval seems to be the norm and has bred discontent in the electorates.

The rise of the controversial candidate is now manifesting in all countries with the likes of Pauline Hansen, Donald Trump and Boris Johnson getting enough support to be problematic and not enough to fix things. As a result, this change is making things worse rather than better and we live in an age of confusion, craving true leadership.

This is having an impact on financial markets as well and, for better or worse, this is the new playing field that we all contributed to. This is especially true for Australian property where foreign investment has been targeted for additional buying fees and now has limited lending options.

Surviving these times and maintaining or improving your personal situation isn’t getting any easier, but we need to find a way to understand the new environment and take advantage of it.

Watch the seminar above to find out:

• How the ongoing political uncertainty influences your decision making
• How international markets may track in the coming year
• If the Australian dollar has now stabilised
• What potential movements of Australian interest rates
• How changes to the Australian political environment are affecting our property markets
• Different options to invest when finance proves difficult to obtain
