One very special highlight of Raisina - High Commissioner Green @AusHCIndia donning his #RaisinaMotif buttons and looking super cool 😎 at @raisinadialogue

जहां land mindset “security dilemma” पैदा करता है, वहीं maritime mindset “strategic opportunity” खोलता है। भारत की असली कहानी LOC पर नहीं, Sea Lanes of Communication (SLOCs) पर लिखी जा रही है। जो देश समुद्र को नहीं समझता, वो 21वीं सदी की geopolitics को miss कर देता है। Link: orfonline.org/hindi @samirsaran @sanjeevsanyal @gchikermane

The Credit Trap: Why Sovereign Ratings Are Failing Emerging Markets Discussion with Alexander Boehmer, OECD, Kwame Owino, Institute of Economic Affairs, Kenya, Louise van Schaik, Clingendaal, Mehul Pandya, CareEdge Group, and @neelkanthmishra, Axis Bank, moderated by @monikahalan youtube.com/watch?v=do_PUm… via @orfonline / @raisinadialogue 2026

It was a great debate, and we found that the crux, of course, was the subjective ratings! The @CareEdge_Group ratings solve for this and reduce the overall weight and manner in which they are used. One point that @neelkanthmishra made was also important, he said that smart capital ignores the ratings that are obviously biased!
