Why Investors Should Think Globally

Please note that this session was recorded live at the 2025 Trustee School, and some audio may not have been captured during the recording.

Session Summary: With US equities enjoying a sustained period of dominance over their international peers, some investors have questioned the wisdom of looking beyond US shores, preferring instead to stick exclusively with the world's dominant market.
