Investment Week is hosting its Global Emerging Markets Briefing at a pivotal time for investors as they start to position for the recovery from the Covid-19 pandemic, although risks remain.
During this interactive briefing, we will hear from a number of global emerging market managers about their response to the extraordinary events of the past year and their outlook for the rest of the year and beyond.
The managers will identify where they are seeing the biggest opportunities and risks at the moment in emerging markets and explain the role their strategies could play in client portfolios.
Attendees will also get the chance to network with peers, quiz our speakers, as well as benefit from CPD points
COP 21 agreement spurs East Capital to review high climate change - related investing risk by Roger Aitken The climate agreement sealed at the COP21 summit in Paris on 12 December 2015 underscores, once and for all, that climate change is a common issue that needs to be addressed in a “strong and coordinated manner”, argues Louise Hedberg, Head of Corporate Governance at East Capital Group, an emerging and frontier markets specialist headquartered in Stockholm that manages €2.1 billion (c.US$2.3bn) in assets for international clientele. As a major achievement on the diplomatic front, which bridges the views of developed and developing nations, the COP21 agreement leaves no nation behind as it provides nearly 200 countries with a global roadmap for accelerating the vital transition to a low-carbon economy.
