Our view on this sector
China and India have performed poorly this year despite still boasting strong positive GDP growth. The big concern for China especially is that as the economies of the Western world slow, there will be less demand for goods made in these countries. Over the longer term, however, we continue to believe that these and the wider emerging and Asian markets have good prospects for capital growth.
