Across the Pond: From conflict to compromise - What a Middle East deal could mean for markets

In the latest episode of Across the Pond, hosts Christopher Swann and Belinda Ulander are joined by UBS Global Chief Economist Paul Donovan to explore the implications for US markets, Europe’s energy-sensitive economy, and opportunities across Asia and beyond.
