In a world with low growth, low returns and higher debt levels, emerging markets potentially offer high growth, high returns and have less debt. They are fast becoming a driver of global growth and represent one of the fastest growing economies with young populations and the largest potential consumer market in the world, with early signs of the rotation already starting from Developed to Emerging Markets.

This is according to the Old Mutual Investment Group (OMIG), who say that despite fears that a potential hike could reverse the recent rally following Brexit or ongoing anxiety over the impact of a US Federal Reserve Bank (Fed) interest rate hike, emerging markets will continue to offer opportunities based on a number of fundamentals such as low profit margins and undervalued currencies.

Fin24 speaks to Siboniso Nxumalo and Feroz Basa co-head's of OMIG's Emerging markets boutique to discover growing trends and where you should be looking to invest.
