In this episode, hosts Sue Whitbread and Matt Williams are joined by Gabriel Sacks, Investment Director on the Global Emerging Markets Equities team at Aberdeen and Co-Manager of abrdn Asia Focus plc.
Gabriel shares his insights into where the real, and often overlooked, value lies in Asian markets. From small-cap stocks to companies flying under the radar of mainstream analysts, Gabriel explains why these “hidden gems” may hold untapped potential for long-term investors, and how a closed-ended structure can bring benefits.
Highlights from this month’s episode:
- What makes a company a “hidden gem” in Asia?
- Why investors might be missing out on major opportunities with these hidden gems?
- The stock selection process, including in-person engagement in a world dominated by data and AI.
- Are Asian smaller companies really riskier – or is that an outdated assumption?
This episode offers a concise and informative overview for those interested in uncovering opportunities within Asian equities, of portfolio diversification, and understanding the value of local insight when investing in emerging markets.
