What the Middle East Conflict Means for Energy Markets, Security and Global Risk
Related Speakers
As conflict dynamics across the Middle East continue to evolve, Iran’s choices and constraints are becoming central to how risk spreads across the region and into global markets. In this keynote, Eurasia Group analyst Gregory Brew, the firm’s Iran country analyst and specialist in the geopolitics of oil and gas, explains how Iran is influencing the current conflict environment and how it is likely to respond as conditions change.
Focusing on the implications organisations care about most, Gregory explores the potential impact of sanctions, risks to shipping and supply, energy price volatility, and the outlook for regional investment and day-to-day operations.
Combining on-the-ground political risk analysis with deep historical expertise in modern Iran, oil markets and United States foreign policy, Gregory provides a clear perspective on what may come next and how organisations can prepare. Drawing on extensive experience briefing senior leaders and contributing to international media, he helps audiences interpret complex developments and understand the signals shaping an increasingly contested geopolitical landscape.
Audience Takeaways
A clearer understanding of Iran’s objectives, constraints and the current conflict environment
Possible escalation scenarios and the early indicators decision-makers should monitor
How regional conflict dynamics can transmit into global markets through energy flows, shipping lanes and price volatility
What sanctions and enforcement trends may mean for corporate exposure and market conditions
A near-term outlook on where de-escalation may be possible and what would need to change for risks to recede
