The UK’s decision to leave the EU and the Bank of England’s subsequent interest rate cut and asset buying have provided a further boost to emerging markets, increasing demand for riskier investments with higher returns as yields in developed markets fall to record lows.

Credit analysts at Rabobank describe the gradual recovery of the US economy combined with external headwinds that have prevented the Federal Reserve from raising interest rates as a “Goldilocks scenario”, adding that in such an environment demand for risky assets was likely to continue to rise.

South Africa’s rand has appreciated 14.8 per cent against the US dollar this year, helped by a rising gold price and greater risk appetite, while Brazil’s real has rallied to its highest level against the dollar for more than a year amid optimism that interim president Michel Temer can curb the country’s budget deficit.
南非蘭特今年對美元升值14.8%,得益于金價上漲和更大的風險偏好,而巴西雷亞爾對美元升至一年多來最高水平,目前各方樂觀地認為,巴西臨時總統(tǒng)米歇爾•特梅爾(Michel Temer)能夠遏制該國的預算赤字。

Now, the environment was more benevolent, said Devan Kaloo, head of global emerging markets at Aberdeen Asset Management. Although the US has reported better than expected jobs data, policymakers have been keen to stress they are in no rush to raise interest rates. “Barring any shocks, ‘lower-for-longer’ US rates should help support EM,” he said.
安本資產(chǎn)管理公司(Aberdeen Asset Management)新興市場股票主管德萬•卡盧(Devan Kaloo)表示,現(xiàn)在大環(huán)境變得更加友善。盡管美國報告了好于預期的就業(yè)數(shù)據(jù),但政策制定者近來熱衷于強調(diào)他們并不急于升息。“只要不出現(xiàn)任何沖擊,‘在較低水平維持更久的’美國利率應該有助于支撐新興市場,”他說。
