Key insights from the report
Long-term assumptions and optimism about growth in Asia remain in place and do not appear to have been significantly impacted by Covid-19 or the ‘new macro’.
Concerns are proliferating and investment consensus breaks down around which strategies and Asian sub-regions are best placed to benefit from the changing dynamics and risks associated with current conditions.
Financial services and fintech are consistently seen as the biggest opportunities for investment in Asia, across all sub-regions.
On 8 January 2023, China dismantled its last pillar of Covid-19 restrictions and the world's attention turned to Asia to see what would happen next. The region that went into isolation in 2020 is far removed, both economically and politically, from the one that has emerged in 2023. Are investors feeling the pressure from the ‘new macro’? Is fragmentation, geopolitics, and pressure on the global financial system making Asia less attractive?
Our research brings together views from both private and corporate investors. We spoke to over 400 senior decision-makers across China, Hong Kong, Singapore, US, UK, Gulf and Western Europe. They told us about their views on the emerging opportunities, risks and structural dynamics they are seeking to navigate in Asia post Covid-19.
