Geopolitical risks have dominated the news over recent
weeks. In Europe, the first round of the French electoral race has
taken place. For the first time in six decades, neither of France’s
main left-wing or right-wing parties have a candidate remaining in
the election. The country’s beaten mainstream parties have now
lined up behind Emmanuel Macron to try to stave off a victory
for far-right Marine Le Pen in the final round of the presidential
election. Initial opinion polls have centrist candidate Macron
beating Le Pen in the second round by 61% to 39%.
