Episode description
In this week’s episode, Candice and Felicity sat down Fidelity’s Gary Monaghan to discuss the investment opportunities in the Asian markets.
In the last two decades, Asia has become a powerhouse of global growth. Demographics and digitalisation have fuelled economic and business expansion, and this has played an important feature in the management of the COVID-19 crisis and the region’s resilient economy. Looking ahead to a post-pandemic world, we believe a new economic order will prevail, and Asia’s enduring role in driving global growth will continue. It is already apparent that new winners will emerge as opportunities arise from dislocation and existing trends accelerate. Countries in Asia with younger populations and growing middle classes will have consumption tailwinds and offer some of the best growth opportunities, first in technology, and later in leisure and travel. Economies will shift from globalisation to regionalisation, and countries with large local regional populations will benefit.
“By 2050, China, India and Indonesia are expected to take three of the five top spots in the global economy (by GDP)”
If you are looking for long-term growth opportunities within the Asian markets, you won’t want to miss this episode.
