Klisman Murati

In a world where geopolitical shifts, technological acceleration, and economic uncertainty collide at unprecedented speed, leaders must excel across three horizons: short-term risk resilience, mid-term strategic positioning, and long-term value creation.

A powerful voice at the intersection of geo-economic foresight, technology and leadership strategy, Murati empowers audiences to make more confident business, investing and policy decisions by replacing traditional thinking with a first-principles approach to strategy creation.

As Founder and CEO of Pareto Economics, Murati leads one of the world’s most advanced strategic intelligence firms. His proprietary framework, the Global Power Index (GPI), assesses 194 countries through six core dimensions of national power. The Index has demonstrated exceptional predictive accuracy — it forecasted the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and Murati correctly called Germany’s recession in 2024. Today, the GPI is trusted by global institutions, blue-chip companies, institutional investors, and governments to forecast risks, uncover opportunities, and plan for the future with confidence.

With over 250 published articles and audiences from more than 120 countries, Murati has shaped the insights and strategies of juggernauts such as NATO, HSBC, The European Commission, Telia, Vanguard, Shell, Stena Bulk, OP Bank and JP Morgan. Murati is widely recognised for his ability to decode macro geoeconomic complexity. His method combines data, first-principles thinking, and a global outlook, helping leaders not only understand the world but actively shape it.

Murati also serves as a Visiting Professor at the Helsinki Geoeconomics Institute, where he merges academic depth with strategic application. His multidisciplinary background from University College London and others spans anthropology, political economy, energy policy, human rights, security studies, financial crime and outer space governance, giving him a rare ability to connect complex global patterns and deliver holistic, forward-thinking analysis.

As a keynote speaker, Murati is known for his clarity, originality and counterintuitive insights, making every keynote a bespoke experience for the client. He does not simply inform audiences — he transforms how they think and act.
