Riding Asean's growth wave via index-linked products
Various factors are driving Asean’s growth story and creating enticing investment opportunities — from long-term trends such as sustainability, digitalisation, and regional economic integration, to short-term ones including global manufacturing and trade. In all cases, Geoff Howie (market strategist, SGX) and Emerald Yau (head of equity index product management, Apac, FTSE Russell) share how ETFs offer an effective way to capitalise on Asean's potential.
