Global emerging markets

Our emerging markets equity team, First State Stewart, has been managing emerging market investments since 1992. The First State Stewart investment philosophy is based on a number of factors: a process based on an absolute as well as relative return mindset; genuine bottom up stock selection; a focus on long-term performance and incentivisation and benchmark insensitivity. We manage money on both a segregated and pooled basis. For more information on segregated mandates please contact us.
