Our Global Emerging Markets Services provide the granular, local detail that EM-focused investors need, with a particular focus on China. Our in-country specialists provide weekly detailed, on-the-ground analysis on the most important emerging markets as well as feeding analysis back into our broad EM research process to produce EM thematic, market strategy and asset and country allocation recommendations.

We provide a crucial and important service to our clients who invest in emerging markets. Each month we produce a strategic review looking at our asset allocation across emerging markets. We identify risks and opportunities within emerging markets, allowing our clients to understand the benefits and risks of investing in a variety of different countries and asset classes.

Not all Emerging Markets are alike, with different stages of development, each present different investment risks and opportunities at different times. Our EM expertise allows us to take advantage of this.
