SCB Julius Baer Urges Diversification Amid Uncertainty
Published on 17/06/2025
» SCB Julius Baer Securities Co., Ltd. (SCB Julius Baer) recently hosted an exclusive “Market Outlook H2/2025” seminar under the theme “A New World Order”, tailored for Ultra High Net Worth Individuals (UHNWIs). The seminar provided insights into the global economic landscape and portfolio strategies for the second half of 2025, amid ongoing market volatility. Investors were advised to diversify beyond the US market, which continues to face stagflation risks. The recommendation is to shift allocations toward regions with more accommodative monetary policies and greater macroeconomic stability, such as Europe, Japan, and China. Notably, Europe is entering a rate-cutting cycle alongside increased government spending. In Asia, policies aimed at stimulating domestic consumption are expected to benefit domestic demand and dividend-paying stocks. The investment strategy also emphasised portfolio resilience through allocation to gold, the Swiss franc as a stable currency, and alternative assets to enhance long-term flexibility. The event featured keynote speakers including Mr. Adrian Mazenauer, Chief Executive Officer, SCB Julius Baer; Mr. Kean Tan, Managing Director Senior Advisor Head of Investment Solutions, SCB Julius Baer; Mr. Mark Matthews, Head Research Asia, Bank Julius Baer; and Mr. Bhaskar Laxminarayan, Chief Investment Officer Asia and Middle East, Bank Julius Baer.
