Amundi’s 2025 Investment Outlook identifies a world reconfigured by anomalies such as geopolitical tensions, economic fragmentation, and evolving market dynamics. Despite these challenges, the report emphasizes “bright spots” for investors to capitalize on, supported by resilient economic growth, monetary easing, and targeted opportunities in risk assets, private markets, and sustainability themes. Key Themes and Investment Convictions 1. A Benign Global Economic Outlook - United States: - Economic moderation as inflation subsides and the Federal Reserve gradually cuts rates. GDP growth expected at ~1.7%. - Transition from fiscal stimulus to structural adjustments under Trump’s administration. - Europe: - Modest recovery driven by disinflation, rate cuts by the ECB, and green transition investments. Expected GDP growth ~1.0%. - Growth challenges persist due to geopolitical risks and productivity gaps. - Emerging Markets (EMs): - Asia, led by India and Indonesia, continues to grow robustly, supported by regional trade ties and technological leadership. - China’s economy stabilizes with strategic fiscal and monetary policy adjustments.

2. Investment Opportunities in a Fragmented World - Risk Assets: - Pro-risk stance favors equities, investment-grade credit, and EM bonds. - High-yield bonds and leveraged loans offer attractive yields, particularly in a low-volatility environment. - Private Markets: - Infrastructure investments, driven by global energy transition needs, provide long-term growth and stability. - Private debt offers appealing income opportunities amid a low-interest-rate landscape. - Sectoral Focus: - Growth in artificial intelligence (AI), clean energy, healthcare, and manufacturing re-shoring. - Financials, communication services, and utilities stand out for their resilience and valuation attractiveness. 3. Geopolitical Risks and Diversification - Geopolitical Tensions: - U.S.-China trade wars and strategic rivalries reshape global supply chains. - Potential peace talks in Ukraine and evolving alliances (e.g., BRICS) create uncertainties and opportunities. - Risk Mitigation: - Inflation-linked bonds, gold, and other safe-haven assets provide hedges against geopolitical and inflation risks. - Diversification across geographies and asset classes remains critical. 4. The Role of Central Banks - Monetary Policy: - Global central banks, led by the Fed and ECB, are easing policy rates to support economic recovery. - Rates unlikely to return to pre-pandemic lows, requiring investors to adjust income expectations. - Fixed Income: - U.S. Treasuries and investment-grade credit offer attractive yields. - EM bonds benefit from dovish local central banks, with select opportunities in high-yield debt. 5. Emerging Market Resilience - Asia’s Growth Drivers: - Intra-regional trade networks, such as RCEP, strengthen resilience across sectors like ICT, semiconductors, and agriculture. - India and Indonesia remain top picks, offering strong growth, favorable demographics, and policy support. - China’s Recovery: - Stabilization efforts focus on domestic demand and re-routing trade impacted by U.S. tariffs. Key Investment Strategies - Dynamic Asset Allocation: - Balance pro-risk positions in equities and credit with inflation-resilient assets like infrastructure and cyclical metals. - Sectoral Rotation: - Favor sectors aligned with structural trends, including AI, clean energy, and industrials. - Private Markets: - Emphasize private debt and infrastructure for income and growth in a low-yield environment. - Geopolitical Hedging: - Integrate gold, inflation-linked bonds, and defensive equities to mitigate geopolitical risks.
