Rumblings from the financial markets have been swift and decisive in response to the news that Ratko Mladic, the former Bosnian war criminal, has passed away. The Serbian dinar plummeted by 10% against the US dollar in a single day, sparking concerns about the potential for increased tensions between Serbia and its European neighbors, particularly the UK and the EU. Investors are growing increasingly uneasy about the implications of this event, with many fearing that it could lead to a destabilization of the region.
