As sailors we rely heavily on meteorologists to give us weather forecasts, which allow us to passage plan, optimise race tactics, and ultimately stay safe on the water.
What if, as businesspeople, we had a meteorologist equivalent to allow us to base our decisions on geopolitical and market predictions and stay ahead of global events?

Founded in 2019 by lifelong sailor David Murrin, Global Forecaster helps decision-makers and companies strategically navigate global events to future-proof organisations against macro trends. Using his background in finance and international funding, David and his team have developed a unique algorithm that has successfully predicted events such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the Ukraine war.
By predicting market moves before they happen and analysing patterns in human behaviour, Global Forecaster supports businesses to apply lateral thinking to navigate the future, grasp opportunities, safeguard against turbulent events, and ultimately maximise profitability.
Global Forecaster David Murrin commented, “As human beings we are, sadly, very predictable. Fortunately, this predictability allows us to find deep-seated patterns in history and use them to understand and predict the future. In today’s turbulent climate, this is even more valuable.”
David continued, “As sailors we are lateral thinkers. On the water we look at problems from different angles, take risks, and have an adventurous nature. These maritime characteristics helped form the foundations of democracy and will help us track and predict global events in the future. The question is, can you afford not to know?”
