 |  John Micklethwait | Jason Kelly |

With both the Republican and Democrat National Conventions weeks away, what’s the current outlook on the U.S. general election and how the likely nominees might impact the economic environment?  How will President Obama use his famous ‘pen and phone’ in his last few months in office and what might that mean for U.S. businesses? What are the practical implications of a world where publishers like WikiLeaks and the Panama Papers may make it nearly impossible for governments, corporations, and individuals to keep secrets?   What are the next frontiers for financial reporting? John Micklethwait and Jason Kelly will address these questions and questions from the audience during this fireside chat.
