The Armor-cap Playbook: Resilient Strategies For Institutional Investors

ARMOR (Allocation for Resilient Markets and Operational Readiness) is the first comprehensive framework that shows asset owners, managers, and policymakers how to quantify, score, and actively manage strategic fragility — going far beyond today's Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) labels and enterprise-risk checklists.The global investment industry is waking up to a hard truth: efficiency-first capitalism has left portfolios brittle in the face of geopolitical rifts, supply-chain shocks, cyber disruption, climate extremes, and rapid regulatory realignment. Drawing on fifty years of research in portfolio theory, financial economics, operations management, and national-resilience strategy, this book:With its blend of rigorous analytics, practitioner interviews, and 'playbook' templates, ARMOR equips readers to transform fragility from a hidden liability into a measurable source of competitive advantage.
