Our Manifesto
The global economy has become a tool of power.
Trade, finance, technology, and supply chains are increasingly weaponised.
Economic security now defines national security.
Risk no longer sits at borders, it flows through markets, capital, and dependencies.
Decision-makers are flying blind.
Signals are fragmented, politicised, or buried in noise.
CES exists to restore clarity.
We translate complexity into decision-ready insight.
Our work sits at the intersection of power, pressure, and persuasion.
Why CES
- We are uniquely focused on Economics as a domain of warfare in its own right – we identify threats, provide members with means of managing those threats and define credible economic warfare and security doctrine based on the unique engagement we have across government and security, financial services, businesses and innovation structures.
- We convene closed door strategic conversations between groups of people who do not usually meet to address and take action to deliver economic security – this includes wargaming, dinners and breakfasts, roundtables and webinars. This makes us the de factoNational Centre for Economic Security.
- We research, design and implement the financial and institutional architecture to create the preparedness economy –including the SRF, the SRT and research, education and training in economic security
- We think the unthinkable and have a proven track-record in predicting economic conflict and trade weaponisation – this provides our members and investors with asymmetric insight in advance of actual shifts in public discourse.
