The recent bouts of market agitation over trade fears and central bank shifts have left many institutional investors questioning how best to handle their emerging markets (EM) allocations in the face of heightened uncertainty. Further complicating their task is the fact that a number of long-standing assumptions about this asset class are now less relevant and reliable. While policy, politics, and change are difficult to predict, we believe the constant evolution of EM is one of its key strengths. Asset allocators must be selective in managing their EM assets to outperform amid this more mixed outlook.
Join our panel of senior EM debt and equity investors to hear their firsthand views and reactions to trending topics based on extensive research, encompassing team visits to diverse EM regions, discussions with central bankers, finance ministers, and company management teams. Generally, they see this backdrop as conducive to finding overlooked opportunities. They will share their investment insights and discuss why certain commonly held ideas no longer accurately describe today’s emerging markets.<\/p>","sponsor_logo":"uploads\/webinars\/admin_logo43.png","_lock":{"user":"kharshbarger@pionline.com","created":1568842501}},{"_id":"5d82a3c363f0591a29ef7f48","status":"published","created_at":1568842691,"modified_at":1568842691,"year":"2019","title":"Positioning Credit Portfolios for Unconventional Markets","date":1570593600,"expiration":1584504000,"time":"2:00 p.m - 3:00 p.m. ET","type":"sponsored","link":"https:\/\/event.webcasts.com\/starthere.jsp?ei=1261851&tp_key=7b80f227cc","keywords":"","description":"
