The week inflation became entrenched

March 8, 2022--The events that have unfolded since 24 February have solved one dispute: inflation is no longer temporary.
There are four reasons to expect sustained inflationary pressures and one mitigating factor.
The obvious one is energy prices, with both crude oil and gas prices jumping to very high levels at the start of the war in Ukraine.

With sanctions now imposed, the European Union will need to reduce gas imports from Russia. Some of it will have to be dealt with by reducing demand for gas altogether and some by diverting demand elsewhere.

To the extent that this cannot happen in the next 12 months or so the EU remains dependent on Russia, in which case it is inevitable that gas becomes a tool for retaliation. For as long as these sanctions are in place, the EU will be vulnerable and face a correspondingly heavy energy bill.

War in Europe: the financial front

March 7, 2022--Russia is reeling from massive financial sanctions, while Ukraine's financial system is battered but remains functional, and the EU and global financial systems have rather easily absorbed the initial shock.
Financial sanctions against Russia since its invasion of Ukraine began on 24 February have included three main planks. First, sanctions against named Russian individuals have expanded dramatically.

Second, a series of sanctions has been imposed on individual Russian banks. These include- but are far from limited to- the much-hyped ability of the European Union to require disconnection of individual Russian banks from SWIFT, the international interbank messaging system which is based in Belgium and thus under EU jurisdiction. Third, the Bank of Russia, the country's central bank, has been blocked from using its international reserves in a number of jurisdictions. Critically, these include the United States, the EU, United Kingdom, Canada, Japan, Australia and Switzerland- in other words, all the world's core reserve-currency jurisdictions bar China (China's share of the world's aggregate central bank foreign reserves remains in the low single digits, even though its share of the Bank of Russia’s reserves is significantly higher).

Climate Change in Europe and Central Asia

February 28, 2022--Europe and Central Asia-Vulnerability to Climate Change
The Europe and Central Asia region faces increasing vulnerability to climate change, as warmer temperatures and more volatile weather patterns disrupt ecosystems and increase the frequency of extreme droughts, floods, heat waves, and forest fires. The poorest countries and most vulnerable households are likely to face the worst impacts of climate change, through lost livelihoods and environmental degradation.

While the financial cost of protecting and strengthening the resilience of countries in the region to the impacts of climate change is substantial, it is far outweighed by the cost of inaction or delayed investments. If no action is taken, economic damages from droughts and floods in Central Asia are projected to be up to 1.3% of GDP per annum, while crop yields are expected to decrease by 30% by 2050, leading to around 5.1 million internal climate migrants by that time.

Even European Union countries will experience large impacts-without adaptation more than 400,000 jobs are expected to be lost annually by 2050, with the overall cost of climate-related extreme weather reaching €170 billion by the end of the century.
