Get ahead of emerging markets with top-performer picks for
up-and-comers
Frontier helps investors successfully navigate markets that are yet to
"emerge," with expert advice on spotting opportunities and minimising
risks. With first-hand insights into frontier markets as we travel with
big-name fund managers from Mark Mobius to Morgan Stanley, this
practical guide ranks countries, stocks and bonds on a five- to ten-year
horizon to steer investors toward the most promising destinations.
Written in a compelling and accessible travelogue narrative, each
chapter covers a specific country, providing invaluable market analysis
and a deep understanding of the political, economic, and social
background of those most likely to outperform. The key focus is on fresh
ideas, based on the assessments from top performing money managers when
meeting challenges, hostilities or adversity, and observations after
interviewing high-level government officials and executives.
With advanced economies shackled by debt and sluggish growth, investors
are increasingly turning to emerging markets for better returns. Yet the
money managers who came out on top in China, India, and Brazil are now
focusing their attention on markets that have not yet emerged. This book
applies the perspective of ten of the most successful fund managers in
their field, providing an unparalleled guide to assessing investment
potential in places better known for conflict, poverty and corruption.
- Discover which markets have the best prospects, and which are
potential disasters
- Analyse individual markets by metrics including macro data, global
relative value comparisons of stocks and bonds, buy/ sell triggers, and
more
- Learn which industries, stocks and bonds should be considered in each
market
- Examine each country through real-life on-the-ground assessment of
corruption, conflict and other risks as well as inspirational
breakthroughs that signal opportunities
This is a practical manual for all investors - whether students or
professionals - wanting to get to know the most promising new markets
while avoiding the pitfalls. A must-read for corporate executives
seeking global capital, Frontier provides a better understanding of
the changing international investment dynamic.
