Emerging markets, especially in Asia, present the greatest opportunity to acquire and trade in the products of unique, world class natural resource assets. Asia will increasingly drive demand for energy and minerals. Rapidly changing technology, socio-economic conditions driven by economic growth and urbanisation in Asia, an increasing focus on sustainability and evolving government policies substantially impact on energy and commodity supply and demand.

Anticipating these technological, socio-economic, sustainability and policy shifts is crucial to understanding strategic risk, potential future opportunity and mitigating challenges.
