In a new podcast collaboration with The Business Times, Simon Tay’s Political Café sees SIIA Chairman Simon Tay explore the political forces shaping business decisions, supply chains, and growth in a fragmented global economy.

The third episode, “The Cost of Conflict: Asia’s Energy Risk“, builds on Prof. Tay’s Politics That Matter column on “The Fog of the Iran War“.

He is joined by Sim Hui Ting, Vice President and Senior Analyst, Corporate Finance Group, at Moody’s Ratings, to navigate the current conflict in Iran and what it means for Asia. Beyond immediate market swings, the discussion examines deeper structural issues — from Asia’s reliance on Middle Eastern energy to whether the crisis could catalyse a long-overdue shift in energy security and resilience.
