Acknowledging Professor Hooper’s contribution, a WAPE spokesperson said: “His research on political risk in emerging markets offers vital insights into one of today’s defining challenges, helping policymakers, investors, and academics navigate instability and opportunity in a multipolar economy.”

Reflecting on the honour, Professor Hooper remarked: “This award highlights the need for stronger frameworks to address geopolitical risk. Emerging markets face unique vulnerabilities but also immense opportunities for innovation and growth if we understand the forces shaping them.”
