Bedrock’s Newsletter For Friday 21-12-12

This month we discuss the fallout from US and Israeli strikes on Iran, the effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz, and the market consequences of an oil shock that has left few places to hide.

Inheriting the Future is a new Bedrock series exploring how the next generation is navigating that responsibility in an era of rapid technological and societal change. Written by Bedrock Advisory Board member Kydd Boyle, founder and CEO of Horizons and a member of a fifth-generation family business, the series offers a candid perspective shaped by his experience as an entrepreneur, investor, next-gen, and father.

Bedrock has been named Best Independent Wealth Manager at the 2026 Euromoney Private Banking Awards, recognising the firms ability to combine independence with scale, sophisticated investment leadership, and a fully integrated multi‑family office offering.
