Evolving Trends
Discover a single point of access to the five major long-term growth themes we have identified in the entire evolving economy
Investing in the trends an evolving economy has to offer
Companies are increasingly global and multi-sector in their approach, but many investors’ approach to equities has remained the same. This means that investors could be missing out on potentially higher equity returns by continuing to base their equity allocation solely on traditional geographic or sector approaches.
We believe that the trends captured by the evolving economy give investors access to the best opportunities for long-term structural growth, by identifying companies that are tapping into multi-decade demographic and technological changes, regardless of their region or sector classification.
The evolving economy trends shaping the pace of change.
Ageing and lifestyle
Ageing population trends are creating opportunities for long-term growth investors due to growing demand for healthcare, leisure, wellness, housing and more.
Connected consumer
Digitalisation empowers consumers like never before with 24 hour, mobile access to a vast choice of products - companies must evolve to remain competitive.
Automation
More industries can now use robotics offering greater sophistication, precision for repetitive or hazardous tasks, and may provide affordable labour solutions.
Clean Economy
Innovative companies are creating solutions to address pressures on scarce natural resources and the need for greenhouse gas emission reduction.
Transitioning societies
A rapidly growing global middle class is likely to create growth opportunities as goods and infrastructure demand shifts from the basic to the aspirational.
Metaverse
The Metaverse is driven by companies that, from our perspective, have the potential to generate strong growth over the next decade.
Our solution
Evolving Trends offers investors a single point of access to high-quality companies benefiting from one or more of the five major growth themes within the evolving economy. While these structural themes are not new, we believe we are still in the relatively early stages of accessing their investment potential.
