Emerging markets have had one of the strongest years since 2017, with currency appreciation a key driver of returns. In this episode of Inside Active, host David Cohne, mutual fund and active management analyst with Bloomberg Intelligence, along with co-host Marvin Chen, BI’s senior Asia equity strategist spoke with Robert Marshall-Lee, founding partner and chief investment officer of Cusana Capital about its sword-and-shield framework, which seeks high-quality, founder-led compounders with structural growth and avoids value-destructive companies. They discussed why emerging-market indexes are full of weak companies, why tariffs are seen as short-term noise rather than structural impediments and where future opportunities could be strongest.
