The world after COVID-19

COVID-19 is an unprecedented public health emergency which has profound socioeconomic implications. The strain it has placed on global healthcare security professionals, their infrastructure and the economies and social fabric of countries has been severe.

As part of our weekly AFTERMATH video series led by Kim Catechis, Head of Investment Strategy, members of the Martin Currie investment team discuss the far-reaching impacts of COVID-19 on the economy, the equity market, society, politics, the environment and our portfolios.

Do expect geo-political deliberations and priorities to become shapers of investment outcomes.
