The Rules of the global game continue to change. Increasingly urgent national security anxieties have reframed the global risk environment for policy makers, with critical impacts for business, investment, and innovation. The relatively benign assumptions of the post Cold War era—that increased economic, technological, and digital interdependence would result in societal convergence and the end of geopolitical conflict—have given way to worry that adversaries are exploiting global markets in order to achieve unacceptable strategic advantage. Policy makers’ past attitude of benign laissez faire neglect toward markets has been replaced by a conviction that markets do not appropriately price national security risk nor incentivize investment in security, resilience, and integrity.
