Eye of the Tiger: 2022 Emerging Markets Outlook
Coming out of 2021 and into the Lunar Year of the Tiger, there are three areas in which we believe Emerging Markets (EM) are ahead of the pack creating a foundation for opportunities within the asset class in 2022:
- Vaccination rates in key EM countries, such as China, Taiwan, South Korea, and most of Latin America, are well ahead of the US.
- Chinese regulations startled markets in 2021, but we believe similar rules are yet to come across US and European markets.
- Several EM central banks (Russia, Brazil Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Peru, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Korea, and South Africa) began raising interest rates well ahead of the US and Europe in 2021.
