Global Risk Outlook
The flagship report: drivers, indicators, and probabilistic scenarios shaping the year ahead across all six practices, with confidence stated against every call.
Overview
We don't speculate. We resolve.
Segal Intelligence is a single research desk spanning two methods: a global network of human analysts and an autonomous engine that collects, fuses, and models the open world at machine scale. Decision-grade intelligence for the organizations that carry the most consequential decisions.
A research question is an engineering problem: collect the open world continuously, fuse it across sources, model the scenarios, and put a named analyst behind every judgment. The engine does the scale; the desk owns the call. Every assessment ships with its sourcing and its confidence.

Capabilities
Statecraft
Geopolitical & Strategic Risk
Power, alliances, conflict, and escalation — read continuously rather than reactively. Conflict forecasting, sanctions and alliance shifts, country and counterparty risk dossiers.
Hard power
Defense & Security
Force posture, doctrine, and capability assessed from open sources to a defensible standard. Order-of-battle assessment, procurement tracking, gray-zone activity.
Markets
Economic & Financial Intelligence
Macro shocks, supply-chain exposure, and financial-system risk mapped to the counterparties and chokepoints that actually move outcomes.
Capability
Frontier Technology
Where compute, autonomy, space, and biotech change the balance of power — and who is actually fielding it versus announcing it. Tech-transfer and export-control exposure.
Resources
Energy & Critical Resources
Energy systems, critical minerals, water, and food — the physical substrate of strategy. Resource leverage, grid exposure, rare-earth dependence.
Cognition
Information & Influence
Influence operations, narrative warfare, and information-environment integrity — measured, attributed, and tracked over time, from narrative to network to actor.
Case Studies
Strategic Weekly
The desk's running read of escalation, market, and capability signals — fused from continuous collection and sized to be read before a Monday decision.
Chokepoint Atlas
A continuously updated map of the physical and financial chokepoints that move outcomes — from rare-earth refining to maritime straits to clearing systems.
Capability Tracker
Open-source order-of-battle and procurement tracking across defense and dual-use technology, deconflicted into a single auditable capability picture.
Counterparty Dossier
Commissioned, confidential deep-dive risk assessment on a named counterparty, state, or network — the reference product for due diligence and sovereign exposure.
Indications & Warning
The engine watches a tailored indicator set continuously and the desk alerts the moment a threshold is crossed — the difference between reading the news and being warned by it.
