【ANBOUND GEOPOLITICAL REVIEW】It is now widely rumored that Russia will launch a large-scale attack at the end of February. This is unlikely. Frequent battles will still happen, and perhaps there will be new important battle nodes, where new intense battles in some regions will be heard. That being said, they will not be a large-scale battle, and definitely not something comparable to the Battle of Kursk. This is because both sides are evidently not ready yet and still need time. The real decisive battle may take place in spring, perhaps in April and May, when the main forces of both sides will be engaged in it. There might be Leopard and M1 tanks appearing on the battlefield in Ukraine, and even a large number of new Western equipment as well. At the same time, Russia's last and replenished elite troops will also enter the battlefield again. The outcome of the battle during that period will determine whether Russia can realize that even as a world power, its own war resources are not infinite. If Russian President Vladimir Putin does realize this, the negotiations would have been more constructive. The spring of 2023, said
ANBOUND’s founder Kung Chan, will be a season that determines the future of Europe.
>> 【PRESENT VALUE】This year, it is the 10th anniversary for Econsult Solutions. There were a number of big urban projects from each practice area on a regular basis that ESI researchers have conducted. They’re starting strong with transportation and infrastructure. Community and events may connect people emotionally, but infrastructure connects us physically. It shapes how and when we travel, how long it takes, and how often we will do it.

10 for 10: Transportation and Infrastructure The next governor for the Bank of Japan is of great concern to the market. This not only involves whether the quantitative easing policy implemented in Japan for many years will change but also the direction of the Japanese economy in the post-Abe era. As the BoJ candidate is clarified, the trend of its monetary policy appears clear. That being said, there are still no definite answers to the questions whether the BoJ will shift its policy or not, when and how will. Inflation and growth have caused a dilemma that is still difficult to get rid of, remarked

>>The development and utilization of near space are witnessing an increasingly higher value. The nations are all boosting the research in this regard. As a relatively new field, the differences are not too great across countries. With geopolitical factors dominating the world, the national competition will evolve to the high-altitude near space from the surface of the earth. In turn, new significance will be added to the inclusion of near space, noted
He Jun, Director of Macro-Economy Research Center and Senior Researcher at ANBOUND.

Le Figaro recently published an article on the population decline in China, mentioning that the aging issue threatens the country's economic dynamism and household finances of the country, which are forced to protect themselves against risks. “In China, the level of social protection is not high, and the care of the elderly is becoming a major problem as the number of seniors over 60 years old has exceeded 260 million. Ordinary people should save for the future rather than consume,” said its interview with
Kung Chan, founder of ANBOUND. Also, quoted by

>>Subtle changes are taking place in the views and investment strategies of multinational companies toward the Chinese market, reflecting the impacts of the country's internal and external environment on foreign capital. It would then be indispensable for China to offer higher-level services and maintain a long-term policy framework more stable, so that foreign investors could have a greater sense of stability and security to engage in, writes
Li Lantao, economist at ANBOUND.
