    Robert Salvesen, Managing Director, Research Analyst, Indus Capital Partners | Robert discusses the role for an allocation to Asia as an integral part of a global equity portfolio and the investment case for a pan-Asian approach. He explores the sources of dispersion and alpha in Asian equities, the significance of Asia to the artificial intelligence story, and addresses underappreciated pockets of opportunities in Asia beyond A.I. that investors outside the region may be overlooking.

    Pzena Investment Management’s Rakesh Bordia on investing in deep value equities across Emerging Markets

    Rakesh Bordia, Principal and Portfolio Manager, Pzena Investment Management | Rakesh explains the concept of classic deep value equities investing from a practical perspective. He discusses Pzena’s approach to navigating the challenges and opportunities geopolitical risk presents in Emerging Market equities investing, the impact of concentration in a few select semi-conductor and memory stocks across EM and what he is seeing in the EM opportunity set at the cheapest spectrum of the market, that is unique today, relative to past cycles. Listen to the full interview where we ask Rakesh: - For an institutional audience who knows "value investing" in the abstract, what does classic deep value actually mean in practice? - Given Emerging Markets are heavily benchmark concentrated in a handful of semiconductor and memory names, what should investors be aware of? - What does the rise of passive and quant-driven flows, combined with A.I. driven momentum, mean for a deep value approach? - When you look at the opportunity-set in Emerging Markets today, what are you seeing in the cheapest part of the market that you don’t normally see? - Geopolitical risk is always part of the Emerging Market landscape. How does Pzena navigate these challenges and/or opportunities?   Disclaimer The views and opinions expressed in this recording are those of the individual contributors and their respective organisations at the time of recording.
