Will Emerging Markets See the Light?
Quality Growth Boutique
Like a lotus flower that rises through the mud to blossom each morning, we think emerging markets will see prosperous times ahead:
- EM consumption growth, driven by a rising middle class, remains intact.
- Many EMs today are more resilient to external shocks than in the past and can better withstand the pressures of a stronger US dollar.
- Many EMs have been fairly conservative in their use of stimulus in response to Covid-19, which could lead to a lower financial burden over the long term.
- The MSCI EM Index is currently trading at a 15-year low when compared with the MSCI World (Developed) Index.
Emerging markets can offer investors the opportunity to participate in an enduring growth story.
