What to look out for in Asian Emerging Markets in 2018: Deutsche

SINGAPORE (Dec 21): Deutsche Bank Wealth Management sees potential for further gains in what it calls “the new emerging Asian equity market” ahead – companies with attractive valuations and could gain from the region’s increased exposure to technology.

In the bank’s annual CIO insights report, Reality check – 2018, The investment landscape ahead, Christian Nolting, Deutsche Bank CIO says he expects another year of positive, if not generally lower, investment returns globally – with gross domestic product (GDP) growth levels likely to remain at similar levels to those of 2017.

As such, he foresees the coming year to be “subtly different” from 2017, and recommends that investors should at least be prepared for higher levels of volatility by considering some alternative risk scenarios while keeping an eye on inflation.
