Financial Forecasting
Journal

The Markets is a new series that compares a Brazilian market with international equivalents and aims to offer our readers unexpected opportunities both in and outside Latin America’s largest economy. For this introductory edition, we take a macro-economic view of what’s going on at home and across the globe to set the scene before we take a tour of some of the world’s most fascinating sectors.

We are all looking for the next big thing and a variety of sectors and investment opportunities are revolutionising the fiscal landscape. The first in our series that looks at financial trends in the new economy sets its sights on Environmental, Social and Governance investment and looks at where it is headed and its eventual viability.

A senior editor at Taschen and the chief curator at Domestika, he is a cultural force who recently returned to his motherland and intends to stay because he sees an ocean of opportunity across a host of sectors.
