  • Performance analysis of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index and the Barclays Emerging Markets Index
  • Macroeconomic outlook: A broader investment opportunity set in frontier markets?
  • Identifying strong potential returns and less correlation with US or EU performance
  • What is the economic growth potential in real terms projected for the next 5 years?
  • How are economic relations with the developed world and the BRIC nations?
  • Examples of where the credit crisis has had an impact with non BRIC emerging markets
