Outerblue Convictions - Global Investment Views: markets at a crossroad, opportunities in divergence

Markets are pricing a lasting deflationary and low discount rate environment, and the ability of monetary and fiscal policies to continue to feed the “financial multiplier,” hence keeping a positive momentum of policy support. This support generates a certain dispersion of returns that offers opportunities for relative value play. This is the game investors should play as long as the policy mix keeps markets in a relative calm. Listen to Monica Defend, Global Head of Research, to discover the asset allocation views of October, in this new episode of Blue Convictions. - DISCLAIMER: This podcast is only for the attention of “Professional” investors as defined in Directive 2004/39/EC dated 21 April 2004 on markets in financial instruments (“MIFID”), investment services providers and any other professional of the financial industry.

Outerblue Talks Research - H2 2020 investment outlook: investing during a de-freezing cycle

The Covid-19 crisis drove the global economy into an unprecedented deep freeze in the first half of 2020. The combination of monetary and fiscal stimulus will help the global economy de-freeze in H2. As was the case with the virus cycle, the recovery will be sequential and involve different regions at different times - on a ‘first in, first out’ basis - and will depend on the size of the policy response. As the global economy gradually de-freezes, investors will turn their focus back to geopolitics.  What are the main economical and investment themes to focus on for the second half of 2020? What are the key drivers investors should monitor? Jean-Jacques Barberis, Head of Institutional and Corporate Clients Coverage interviewed Vincent Mortier, Deputy CIO and Monica Defend, Global Head of Research, to answer to these questions.
