  • After the weak economic environment seen in 2019 and then the effects of the Covid-19 lockdowns, India has seen a powerful demand recovery in recent months.
  • Recoveries in Brazil, Mexico and South Africa have been more mixed, but certainly some data points show firm recoveries.
  • With the exception of India, we have been relatively cautious about adding exposure in these markets for two reasons: some significant challenges from Covid second waves and the potential for a short-term inflationary bulge due to rapidly rising commodity prices.
