Please click the link below to view Shane Oliver’s views on the risks of a Eurozone breakup and the potential implications for investors.

Key points raised are:

  • Elections in the Netherlands, France, Germany, possibly Italy and another Catalonian referendum will keep Eurozone break up risks in the headlines this year.
  • However, while the risks are significant – particularly in Italy and France – there are good reasons for thinking the Eurozone will continue to hang together.
  • Periods of market turmoil driven by such fears should be seen as opportunities in Eurozone shares and peripheral bond markets.
