Today’s Topic: Is investing in Emerging Markets (EMs) still worth an allocation?
Rita asks:
-
EM has had a terrible run. Why is that?
-
Are there risks we have miscalculated? And have we treated EMs like DMs and ignored EM-specific risks?
-
How should we think about strategic EM allocations in the future?
