Your local advocate in high-barrier markets:
Emerging and frontier financial markets across Asia, Africa and the Middle East present huge reward potential. And over the past 10 years, access has improved, with more foreign participation than ever before. Still, many markets and currencies remain restricted, and as home to nine-tenths of the world’s population, their potential is only set to rise. Plus given other regional dynamics – urbanisation, rising purchasing power, and expanding technological possibilities – the value of investing here is clear. Having been on the ground in these markets for decades, we can guide you through the local nuances. But beyond this, we can be your local advocate. By working with governments, regulators and clearing systems, we pioneer new opportunities for you. These markets are also home to the greatest ESG opportunities, as sustainable capital here will have the greatest impact. We take our responsibility to channeling such capital seriously – embedding sustainability targets into our solutions. Plus, we’re finding innovative ways to support organisations’ transitions to net zero.
