Quarterly Report: Q3 of 2016
It's finally here - the new issue of Quarterly Report !
Shock waves caused by the decision of the United Kingdom to leave the European Union are expected to ripple across the globe. Though there is a high degree of uncertainty about the consequences as they will largely depend on the goodwill of both the UK and the EU during the negotiation process and on the timing of the divorce, Brexit is fuelling market volatility and is worsening overall economic sentiment.

Quarterly Report: Q1 of 2016
It's finally here - the new issue of the Quarterly Report!
Supposedly, no one would argue that an economy, especially a global one, is far too complex – far beyond anyone’s full comprehension. It resembles a bunch of gears with varying diameter and number of teeth, connected together in one enormous contraption. Meanwhile, the policymakers are the ones who take part in the mechanical reasoning test and turn the first wheel to guess direction and speed of the last one, the wheel of economic grow…
Quarterly Report: Q4 of 2015
If you're wondering what to read during the weekend, here's an idea:
The global economy gives no reasons for celebration. It seems the situation is even worse than three months ago, when we thought we had hit the rock bottom. Alas, further deterioration is only becoming increasingly likely.
Looking back at our previous quarterly report, the world was mostly concerned with China because of the devastating quake in the country’s equity market. As a result, the Chinese …

Quarterly Report: Q3 of 2015
Quarterly Report
Finding a silver lining throughout the previous quarter proved to be a difficult task. Nevertheless, the risky currencies have performed relatively well compared to their safer counterparts since the previous report. Three months ago, there were good reasons to be hopeful, but in the end it turned out that there was too much complacency in the market and the world sighed in relief a little too soon. Back in April ‘Grexit’ was only a hypothetical event, a word used to scare coun…

Quarterly Report: Q2 of 2015
Full Report
So far this year, the markets have been calm, being characterised by persisting trends. Nonetheless, we can hardly describe the first quarter as dull. The impact of some of the events during the first three months of 2015 extended beyond the changes in the exchange rates; to a certain degree, they even changed the landscape of the forex industry.
Meanwhile, growth in the developed world remains elusive, and the emerging markets fail as a good alternative. However, the prospects are b…

Quarterly Report: Q1 of 2015
FULL REPORT
It may seem the main FX topics for 2015 are crystal clear–appreciation of the US Dollar amid the highly-anticipated Fed rate hike and broad-based sell-offs of the Euro and the Yen. The common currency may become a victim of the Euro zone edition of the quantitative easing. On the other hand, the Japanese Yen is expected to suffer more from lagging growth and stubbornly low inflation, partially a result of the fiscal tightening. There is an important distinction between the latter two…

In the first half of this year the USA, along with the other developed regions of the world, suffered from painfully slow recovery, casting doubt over the ability of the world economy to stand on its own two feet this year without the crutches in the form of stimulus. But in the end the world’s largest economy also turned out to be the most successful among its peers. It was one of the few countries that seem to have preserved the positive momentum. As a result, th…
