We are delighted to share with you our most recent research piece: “Authoritarian Regimes and Investment Risk”. This is the first part of a series of research pieces that we are planning to publish on the topic.

Wars / conflicts (i.e. – Russia/Ukraine) coupled with rising geopolitical tensions due to autocratic regimes have introduced a change in the paradigm in the world economy. At TOBAM, we are convinced that it is time to address the investment risk linked to authoritarian regimes, by helping investors form an educated opinion about it and by finding ways to tackle this risk in their portfolios.

In this first note, we review the evidence in academic research that analyzes the relationship between democracies and growth as well as the stock market impact of authoritarian regimes.
