In this podcast, we are joined by Jeremy Schwartz, the Global Chief Investment Officer at WisdomTree. Jeremy and Doug discuss international investment opportunities, with a focus on the promising markets of Japan and India, and strategies to effectively navigate and hedge risks in these regions.
They also discussed:
- Japan and India as promising markets, noting their favorable economic fundamentals and significant growth potential.
- Japan is identified as a strong investment prospect due to the benefits of currency hedging, robust corporate governance, and dividend growth.
- India stands out with its rapid economic expansion, large population, and pro-business reforms under Prime Minister Modi's leadership.
- Schwartz emphasizes the importance of currency hedging to mitigate the risks associated with fluctuating foreign currencies, which can significantly impact investment returns.
- The pivotal role of technology in driving economic growth in India, especially in enhancing financial inclusion and efficiency.
