The Ruffer Review

Our annual publication, sharing some investment thinking
Not cricket
Like markets, sports depend on trust and integrity, which are easily undermined by bad actors seeking a competitive edge. Clear, robust governance can help.
What the hell is water?
The new global monetary system created by Asian central bank devaluations in the mid-1990s is metamorphosing. Understanding this shift will be key to investment success.
The Adventures of a Capitalist
Mark Twain’s literary career was brilliant and lucrative. Whilst similar success eluded him in business, his literary public admired his ambition, a reflection of the age.
Blue Frontier – Taming the Wild West of the High Seas
A new UN treaty aims to protect marine habitats and oceans’ resources more equitably. But will these reforms be too little too late?
Getting to the bottom of the dollar
Today, the dollar reigns supreme as the world’s principal reserve currency. But how did it reach this position? And how long can it stay there?
Minds over matter
Whilst technology has transformed stock markets over the centuries, they are underpinned by human traits like fear and greed, which remain unaltered. But one key recent change has been to markets’ purpose, and this risks severe instability.
Gravity always wins
Whilst machines are clearly superior at short-term investing, their systematic strategies may create opportunities human investors can exploit over the long term.
Something new under the sun
Several new features of the global financial system have increased both the risk of a market crisis and its likely severity.
Ruffer Review 2024
The Ruffer Review 2024 presents a wide-ranging collection of articles on financial markets, their participants, geopolitics and much more.
Happy, clever people
Advanced economies face low and falling productivity. To solve this problem, companies need to innovate, and many have turned to technological solutions. But the best companies understand that an engaged, creative and knowledgeable workforce is the key.
