Geopolitical Dispatch is the daily global intelligence and risk briefing of Geopolitical Strategy, an advisory firm specialising exclusively in geopolitical risk. 

Written by a team of experienced former diplomats, Geopolitical Dispatch gives investors and business leaders the strategic insight generally only available to government. We have based Geopolitical Dispatch on the US President’s Daily Brief to provide timely and concise analysis of the issues that matter with the brevity of a media digest but the depth of an intelligence assessment.

Geopolitical Dispatch is written by Michael Feller and Damien Bruckard. Michael has held senior roles in Australia’s foreign service and prime minister’s department and was previously a financial journalist, investment strategist and mining prospector. Damien was also an Australian diplomat, serving in Moscow, as well as a trade negotiator, legal advisor and head of trade and investment at the International Chamber of Commerce.

This publication is our passion, and the content is supported by our team’s deep experience in diplomacy, international relations and business. We are entirely reader-supported — there is not and never will be ads — and we are quickly growing to be the most trusted, independent and professional daily geopolitics newsletter on the Substack platform.
