Washingtoner/10303636

LONDON - Washingtoner -- K2 Integrity, the leading global risk and financial crimes advisory firm, is pleased to announce its upcoming webinar, "Investing in the European Defense Sector—How the New Era of Uncertainty Is Redefining Investment Strategies." This one-hour virtual session will examine the sweeping changes underway in the European defense sector and what they mean for investors navigating today's geopolitical and economic landscape.

Over the past four years, no sector has shifted more dramatically than defense. Once constrained by ESG criteria that limited capital flows, the industry has seen defense stocks surge following the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2021, alongside massive multiyear investment commitments from European governments. At the same time, ethical considerations have evolved, with a growing argument that investment in defense is essential for the preservation of democracy in Europe.

"This is a pivotal moment for investors weighing both the risks and opportunities in defense," said Jason Wright, senior managing director in the Investigations and Disputes practice at K2 Integrity and moderator of the session. "Our discussion will look at how the geopolitical context is reshaping the sector, and what this means for long-term investment strategies."
