2)   REVIEW OF UBS GLOBAL INVESTMENT RETURNS YEARBOOK 2025:

François Doyon La Rochelle:

Hello, James! How are you today?

James Parkyn:

I'm very good, Francois. And how are you?

François Doyon La Rochelle:

I will start this off for our Listeners.  Today's topic is a Review of the 26th edition of The UBS Global Investment Returns Yearbook 2025 Summary Edition.  Reviewing the Yearbook is an annual ritual for our Podcast.  This is the second year it has been published under the UBS Brand. This change came about because of the merger of Credit Suisse and UBS. This is the 4th year we have published a podcast offering the UBS Global Investment Returns Yearbook and the content from the prior Yearbooks is still very relevant.

I would also like to highlight that the Yearbook is published by UBS in collaboration with Professors Paul Marsh and Mike Staunton of London Business School and Professor Elroy Dimson of Cambridge University.  They have been involved for all 26 years.

This being said, James, could you give our Listeners an Intro about the Yearbook and explain its purpose?…Read More
