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








India's premier geopolitics conference didn't open with strategy. It opened with a civilisational idea. Raisina Dialogue 2026 chose Saṁskāra as its theme and we at Bṛhat recognised immediately why that word changes everything.

There’s been a Raisina Dialogue in Delhi every March since 2016. It’s the brainchild of Subrahmanyam Jaishankar, Narendra Modi’s long-serving foreign minister. Like other global gatherings, it brings together political leaders, senior military commanders, prominent business people, leading journalists, and think tank chiefs to discuss key issues; but it’s better than Davos because it’s not so dominated by politically correct plutocrats; and better than the longer-running Chinese Boao Forum, because it not essentially an exercise in homage to the host government. I started attending virtually, during the pandemic, and have been there in person since 2022. My reflections on Raisina, Modi, and why India matters more than ever in my latest at The Tony Abbott Newsletter: tonyabbott.au/p/what-davos-s…
