Caveats

• This is a domestic political development within Serbia.
• Serbia is not a major global producer or consumer of energy, grains, or metals.
• No direct impact on global freight routes or costs.
• While local Serbian equities and the Serbian Dinar (RSD) may experience volatility, there is no discernible path for this event to significantly move global FX markets or global equity beta.
