Ian Bremmer
Ian Bremmer is the president of the world’s leading global
political risk research and consulting firm, Eurasia Group.
Bremmer started the firm in 1998 with $25,000 in hand. Today, Eurasia Group employs more than 85 full-time
employees in its New York City, Washington, and London
offices. It also calls on the services of several hundred
experts in 65 countries. The firm’s client base includes
more than 200 multinational companies, leading financial
institutions, government departments, and political
leaders. Eurasia Group is widely respected for its
objectivity and ability to explain how political risk is
directly applicable to the global marketplace. Bremmer has recently written articles for the Wall Street
Journal, Washington Post, Newsweek, and Harvard Business
Review. His six books include The J Curve: A New Way to
Understand Why Nations Rise and Fall, which was selected by
The Economist as one of the best books of 2006. In March
2009, he published The Fat Tail: The Power of Political
Knowledge for Strategic Investing with Preston Keat, a
director of research at Eurasia Group. Nouriel Roubini
described The Fat Tail as the definitive survey of the
subject and indispensible for global investors. Bremmer’s
May 2009 article for the Council on Foreign Relations’
Foreign Affairs magazine is the first to describe in detail
the new global phenomenon of state capitalism and its
geopolitical implications. Bremmer has a PhD in political science from Stanford
University (1994) and became the youngest-ever national
fellow at the Hoover Institution. He has taught at Columbia
University, the EastWest Institute, and the World Policy
Institute, and in 2007 was named a Young Global Leader of
the World Economic Forum. Much of his own analytical focus
has been on emerging markets, which he defines as “those
countries where politics matter at least as much as
economics for market outcomes.” Ian grew up in Boston and now lives in New York.
