Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#92 Beyond the index giants: the case for active EM
Q: What makes active management particularly relevant for EM now?
Active managers can navigate off-the-beaten-path opportunities (like Turkey and Aselsan) and adjust exposure to tech risks, leveraging EMs' asset-heavy structure to benefit from AI-enabled efficiency gains rather than disruption.
#92 Beyond the index giants: the case for active EM
Q: How should investors think about concentration risk in EM versus DM?
Concentration reflects survivorship bias in winning companies; it isn't inherently bad if the valuations are reasonable, and EMs may tolerate a few large names if they have pricing power and durable earnings.
#95 Two scoreboards: why SA credit holds up while the economy limps
Q: Is the SA corporate credit market a lead indicator for the economy?
Not really; the economy needs real private capex and improved business confidence; credit markets can perform while broader growth lags if confidence remains uncertain.
#95 Two scoreboards: why SA credit holds up while the economy limps
Q: Why the emphasis on banks and government-guaranteed exposures?
Banks offer disciplined regulation, diversification, and capital market access; government-guaranteed SOEs reduce standalone risk, though we remain cautious about latent municipal risks.
#95 Two scoreboards: why SA credit holds up while the economy limps
Q: How are you positioning in terms of quality versus yield?
Quality is prioritized; we back high-quality names with pricing power and resilient cash flows, using term and liquidity selectively after confirming credit quality.
