Sovereigns are targeting markets offering security and growth
Traditionally sovereigns have grouped countries by economic development or geographic region to form their overall geographic allocations. Indeed, last year, we highlighted increased allocations to North America, based on perceptions of the US as a 'safe haven' for sovereign assets, driven by the strength of its currency and positive tax changes for international investors.
While at a high level, sovereigns have been unwilling to adjust regional allocations (as outlined in theme 1), idiosyncratic geopolitical risks are causing sovereigns to reweight to countries within these allocation bands. In developed markets, uncertainty over global interest rates is shifting this focus to identifying markets to shelter assets (as shown by the increased attractiveness of the US and Germany in figure 7), with Brexit and the US election cited as the factors of fastest growing importance to asset allocation (growing importance cited by 82% and 68% of sovereigns respectively). Similarly, emerging markets sovereigns are identifying countries with the greatest potential for long-term economic growth.
