At FIA's International Derivatives Expo in London, Mairéad McGuinness, former European Commissioner for Financial Stability, Financial Services and Capital Markets Union, and David Wright, Chairman of Eurofi, joined Walt Lukken to assess Europe's competitiveness challenge. Both warned that a more hostile global environment is exposing structural weaknesses, and that Europe must move beyond incremental reform to unlock capital, scale markets and accelerate decision-making. They argued that mobilising investment and delivering faster political action will be critical to strengthening growth and resilience.
As geopolitical tensions radically reshape global flows of physical commodities, understanding the macro forces driving volatility in commodity markets has never been more critical. Spencer Dale, former chief economist at BP and now a professor at the London School of Economics, spoke with FIA's Will Acworth on the drive for energy security, the impact of AI on energy demand, and the speed of the energy transition, among other topics.

Walt Lukken sat down with Jeremy Maletz, head of macro trading and prediction markets at Susquehanna International Group.

At the FIA Global Cleared Markets Conference in Boca Raton, Paul Atkins, Chairman of the US Securities and Exchange Commission, spoke to Walt Lukken about his aims to reset the SEC–CFTC relationship through stronger harmonisation and a clear "tone from the top" to end turf wars and support innovation.
