What Lies Ahead for Emerging Markets?
Emerging markets face a mixed outlook: While Asia’s prospects look favourable, other regions face challenges
The growth outlook for emerging markets is mixed, with considerable variation across regions. Inflation remains a risk, and EM central banks are at varying stages of their hiking cycles in response to it. Opportunities may arise to invest in countries where inflation has peaked and rates may come down and in selected high yield bonds.
