Asian Opportunities amid uncertainty

Volatility provides opportunity, uncertainty leads to mis-pricing

William Lam, Co-Head of Asian and Emerging Markets Equities

As the Covid-19 pandemic recovery continues, a lingering uncertainty over the global economic outlook remains. Expectations that further periods of heightened market volatility could lie ahead.

Being valuation-driven, contrarian investors with a long-term investment horizon, we often find our best ideas in periods such as these.

The insights provided here highlight what we believe to be the areas of greatest risk and opportunity in Asian equity markets today. 

Investment risks

  • The value of investments and any income will fluctuate (this may partly be the result of exchange rate fluctuations) and investors may not get back the full amount invested.

    As a large portion of the strategy is invested in less developed countries, you should be prepared to accept significantly large fluctuations in value.
