Klisman Murati is a geoeconomist, strategic advisor and international keynote speaker whose work explores the forces reshaping global power, economic competitiveness and the future of international markets. He is the Founder of Pareto Economics and creator of the Global Power Index, a proprietary analytical framework examining 194 countries across ten dimensions of power, drawing on 30 years of historical data and more than 500,000 data points.
At the intersection of geopolitics, economics, technology and global finance, Murati helps business leaders, investors and policymakers make sense of an increasingly interconnected and unpredictable world. His approach combines systems thinking, first-principles analysis and data to reveal patterns that conventional economic and geopolitical assessments often overlook.
Murati has developed the concept of geo-risk, which examines how political, technological, demographic and capital forces interact to influence business outcomes. He has also pioneered the study of segmented polarity, challenging traditional distinctions between developed and emerging markets and offering a different framework for understanding economic development and the distribution of global influence.
His work addresses some of the most consequential questions facing organisations today: how artificial intelligence is redistributing economic and strategic power, where the next centres of global growth may emerge, how supply chains and capital flows are changing, and what businesses must do to remain competitive amid geopolitical uncertainty.
Murati has shared his insights with audiences at organisations and forums including Siemens, KPMG, HSBC, Barclays, Capgemini, Macquarie, Vanguard, Shell, NASSCOM and the EU Investment Conference. His speaking engagements have taken him across Europe, the Middle East and Asia, including the NASSCOM Design & Engineering Summit in Bengaluru, Telia DAY ONE Conference in Helsinki and AIM Summit in London.
A distinctive feature of his presentations is their use of Global Power Index data to examine the countries, industries and strategic challenges most relevant to each audience. Through original research, compelling storytelling and practical frameworks, Murati encourages leaders to question prevailing assumptions, distinguish long-term signals from short-term noise and make more informed decisions about the future.
