In Conversation with John Emerson: Will Trump Make America Great Again?

19 June 2025 • 60 mins listen

Join our in-depth conversation with Bank of Singapore’s Global Chief Investment Officer, Jean Chia and John Emerson, the vice chair of leading US fund manager Capital Group International. As a former US diplomat, John will shed light on the shifts in US foreign policy and the potential impact on global economics and the changing world order.

Will Trump Make America Great Again (MAGA)?

In this dialogue, we will unpack the fundamental differences between Trump and previous administrations. This then paves the way for a more nuanced understanding of other key topics on the US such as potential guardrails against capricious policymaking, tariffs, US exceptionalism and immigration. We will also delve into important geopolitical issues, including choices relating to potential US involvement in the ongoing Israel-Iran conflict, and the path forward for Europe’s defence buildup. Finally, we will also cover the topic of immigration and how it plays an important role in global demographic trends.
