In Episode #44, we are joined by Isaac Stone Fish, CEO and founder of Strategy Risks, as well as a renowned journalist. We discuss: What initially drew Isaac to China, where he lived for seven years, and his experiences visiting all of China's provinces, autonomous regions, and direct-administered municipalities. The importance of interesting conversations in a journalist's work. Isaac's new venture focusing on political risk in China. Chinese companies and ESG: The soft complicity of low expectations? The one thing on which Isaac strongly agrees with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). What does a post-CCP China look like, and the implications for the United States.
