Unknown / Black Swan

The current geopolitical tensions involving Iran, particularly its potential to escalate into a broader conflict, present a high Black Swan risk. This situation could severely disrupt global energy supplies, leading to economic instability and heightened geopolitical tensions, especially in energy-dependent regions. The intersection of these factors with existing global challenges, such as supply chain vulnerabilities and economic uncertainties, amplifies the potential for widespread, unpredictable impacts. The complexity and unpredictability of the situation make it a significant concern, as traditional forecasting models may not fully capture the cascading effects of such a conflict.
