The second half of 2026 is defined by geopolitical shock, policy intervention and accelerating fragmentation across trade, energy, and technology systems. The implications for companies and capital deployers operating in the Indo-Pacific and Africa are immediate, shaping costs, market access and the viability of long-term investments. BGA's Political and Economic Forecast for the second half of 2026 provides an in-market view of how governments across these regions are responding, and what those decisions mean for business outcomes. Drawing on insights from teams embedded in key capitals, the report highlights where policy is tightening, where risk is rising, and where opportunity is emerging.
