Money manager Lazard shares their outlook on emerging market equity and fixed income. "Growth in emerging markets continues to be resilient amid the sovereign-debt turmoil in the United States and parts of Europe. Relative to developed markets, emerging markets have been supported by better fundamentals, including lower indebtedness. In particular, we believe that demand from China will continue to heavily influence emerging market performance, and that a hard landing is less likely now that China’s growth rate has moderated to a more sustainable level."

Money manager Lazard is out with their latest quarterly commentary regarding Emerging Market equity and fixed income. "Over the next 12 to 18 months, we believe that the outlook in emerging markets remains relatively strong and that growth rates will slow to a healthy level. Furthermore, we continue to expect headline inflationary pressures to subside as growth declines marginally and liquidity tightening measures work their way through emerging markets economies. Perhaps most importantly, we believe that valuations are reasonable in emerging markets, given this backdrop."

Lazard believes there are conflicting signals regarding the current economic conditions, which are affecting certain industry sectors differently. Technology and industrials appear to be resilient, while consumer goods and materials are showing weak trends. Energy, health care, and financials are focused on what transpires in Washington, and Lazard thinks that this trend towards government intervention will play a more prominent role in the years to come compared to any time in the last two decades. Lazard believes attractive opportunities for investors exist in finding those companies with healthy balance sheets, strong organic cash flow, and operational flexibility, as these companies should deliver better results over time.

Compared to the industrialized world, their financial systems are not overleveraged, and their consumers have more room to spend. Although emerging markets have risen quite substantially since the market bottom in early 2009, Lazard is still optimistic on the outlook for future growth.
