Do UK investors need to look past not just their domestic market but the West as a whole?
This week our guest is the American investor, former fund manager and financial commentator Jim Rogers. A noted China and commodities bull, he moved to Singapore in 2007 so he and his family could be in Asia and closer to what he and many others argue is the economic heart of the world.
He speaks to Alex Newman about the continent’s growth prospects, his thoughts on the Ant Group IPO suspension, the outlook for commodities and the UK post-Brexit.
Last time the magazine spoke with Jim Rogers, it was the height of the 2008 banking crisis, and he and his family had just moved to Asia. In common with a long-term investment view, many of the themes he discussed then are equally relevant today.
Despite setbacks, China’s financial markets are becoming ever-more important to investors. Over the long-term, this has big implications for the renminbi and the dollar.
