Reading time : 15 min.
INSIGHTS MARKETS
Historically, investing in emerging markets (EM) has implied accepting higher volatility and risks, including political instability and currency devaluations. Yet, over the past decade, the structure and drivers of the asset class have changed.Today, an EM debt (EMD) investment can be made based on the perspective for sustained economic growth, ongoing governance improvements, and a more mature structure for debt issuance, characterised by increased issuance in local debt markets versus hard currency (external) debt markets.In this article, Ostrum AM’s EMD experts Brigitte Le Bris, Sebastien Thenard and Clothilde Malaussene share what they see as the key risks and opportunities for EM investors.
