Our colleagues over at DealBook, in their first posts about Davos 2013, ruminate on how many of Davos predictions each year actually come true and whether capital can really compete with politics in the real New World Order.
This year Davos will again take place against a changing economic landscape in Europe. The Continent, no longer a ticking time bomb, is “potentially facing a starker problem,” the IHT’s Liz Alderman and Jack Ewing write in DealBook. “The biggest concern is that leaders might become less vigilant now that the heat is off, ushering in a spate of new troubles that could dog the euro for years to come.”
Apparently, bankers attending Davos may find the mood to be more congenial than in years past. “Among the government overseers who will also be in attendance, there appears to be a growing sentiment that the banks have taken enough abuse,” DealBook writes.
Any questions for those attending Davos, or for the IHT reporters and editors covering the World Economic Forum? Send them our way in the comments below.
