The 2020 US Presidential election is between two very different candidates: President Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden. The outcome of this election could have one of the biggest policy swings in US history. In this keynote, Andy breaks down the candidate’s policies impacting the economy, business and jobs. He'll tell you which plans help or hurt the economy the most. He'll give you the winners and losers in each sector of the economy. Trade, health care and energy will all be impacted and discussed. Most importantly, he'll tell you how the COVID economic shutdown will tip the election. Andy objectively takes your audience out of the current COVID chaos to provide confidence in the future. He connects the dots to show how this election will impact the economy, business and jobs.

Andy recently did this for Society of Industrial and Office Realtors and here's their recommendation:

"For our SIOR 2020 TransACT 360 annual conference, we had Andrew Busch present via a webinar. We had almost 1K people participate on-line. Andy was fantastic and gave our attendees wonderful information about what to expect from the 2020 election. His presentation was full of real-life examples and stories to connect our audience to his material. His upbeat outlook was exactly what we needed to get us focused on the future and what the opportunities will be heading into the 2020 election."

Environmental, Social and Governance or ESG is considered one of the hottest investment themes today for clients and investment professionals. Andy explains how a Biden victory and the new EU budget will supercharge interest in ESG. This is already happening as record amount of money has flowed into sustainable focused ETFs and open-end mutual funds in both in 2019. Most striking, money flowed into ESG equity products in 2020 when almost all other equity funds saw money leave.

But what actually is it and how do you define how to invest in companies that say they are doing it? As a former regulator and CMIO of the CFTC, Andy Busch explains how ESG came about, what the risks are and how ESG is trickier for investing than it looks. How does it fit into a bigger picture of the economy and how will it drive trends? After working for the agency that approved bitcoin, Andy brings a unique perspective to explaining why the SEC is not likely to approve ESG and regulate it. And why this will matter to all investment professionals and investors.
