watch out for include;

Eurozone
Political risks take center stage in Italy(parliamentary
elections in February) and Germany(September), which will
have a bearing on fiscal and debt reforms in Europe.
Asia
Elections and leadership changes will likely have important
ramifications for economic developments in 2013.
• China, Japan and South Koreahad completed their new
leadership elections last year, including the election of
Korea’s first female President.
• China’sleadership handover will take place in March 13,
2013. By then, markets could turn their focus to the
direction of the world’s second-largest economy over the
next 10 years.
• Malaysia's13th general election is only months away
from their due date of 28 April 2013.
