In our new CIO Special, we analyse the economic outlook for Southeast Asia and the asset class implications especially with the regional border reopening.

  • Despite spillovers from Ukraine and China’s struggles with Omicron, we see supportive growth drivers for Southeast Asia, particularly from regional border reopening.
  • With the rising interest rate environment and high commodity prices, ASEAN’s financial and energy sectors could continue as key sectoral drivers.
  • Singapore has tightened monetary policy three times in the past six months; more central bank tightening is likely to follow in Southeast Asia.

There are reasons to expect this to continue: foreign direct investment flows into several ASEAN economies, notably Indonesia, Malaysia, and Vietnam, remain strong.

The value of an investment can fall as well as rise and you might not get back the amount originally invested at any point in time. Your capital may be at risk.

No assurance can be given that any forecast or target can be achieved. Forecasts are based on assumptions, estimates, opinions and hypothetical models which may prove to be incorrect. Past performance is not indicative of future returns. Performance refers to a nominal value based on price gains/losses and does not take into account inflation. Inflation will have a negative impact on the purchasing power of this nominal monetary value. Depending on the current level of inflation, this may lead to a real loss in value, even if the nominal performance of the investment is positive.
