MoneyFM 89.3 Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen talks with Barbara Kelemen, Associate Director for Geoeconomics & Global Risks at Dragonfly on this week’s International News Review.

We begin with the Iran conflict, which is now sending shockwaves through global energy markets. Tankers are breaking down under a flood of tainted fuel, supply chains are tightening. Barbara explains how this crisis is reshaping risk assessments for governments and multinationals across Asia, the world’s largest energy‑importing region.

We then zoom out to the global macro outlook, where geopolitical volatility, fragmented regulation, and rising protectionism are creating a more complex operating environment for businesses. Barbara shares Dragonfly’s geopolitical forecast for the second half of 2026, including the flashpoints to watch and the scenarios that could shift markets overnight.

Finally, we look at the APAC impact: how companies in Singapore and across the region are adapting their strategies, diversifying supply chains, and preparing for a world defined by uncertainty.
