In fixed income, EM debt ranks as their top duration call and carries the largest credit overweight. By contrast, US Treasuries, core European sovereigns, and US investment-grade bonds are widely underweight. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Why now? <\/strong>The rotation reflects efforts to reduce exposure to US assets and the greenback in a climate of policy uncertainty and an ever-widening fiscal deficit. Tech jitters tied to artificial intelligence volatility rattled Wall Street this week, with Nvidia\u2019s latest sales forecast <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2026-02-25\/nvidia-s-rosy-revenue-forecast-shows-the-ai-boom-remains-strong\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">failing to stoke confidence in investors<\/a>. Yet, hardware-heavy Asian markets have largely shrugged off the fears swarming the AI sector in development markets. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>MSCI\u2019s main EM equity index has climbed to fresh record highs<\/strong>, with gains of 15% so far this year. EM currencies have advanced for five straight sessions to new peaks. EMs are also offering higher yields: fixed income, local-currency EM sovereigns have returned 2.2% YTD, according to a Bloomberg gauge, while similar USD-denominated sovereign debt lags at 1.7%.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>On the policy front<\/strong>, investors have pointed to improved policymaking across several EM economies, particularly on inflation control and debt management. However, even countries showing signs of fiscal strain are finding demand \u2014 Indonesia raised USD 4.5 bn this week in its largest global bond issuance in nearly 10 years.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Despite the rally, managers argue that positioning remains far from crowded. <\/strong>EM assets are still relatively cheap compared to developed peers, and global fund allocations to the sector remain light. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>(** Tap or click the headline above to read this story<\/strong> with all of the links to our background as well as external sources.)<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">MARKETS THIS MORNING- <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Asian markets are mixed<\/strong> this morning, with South Korea\u2019s Kospi leading losses with a 1.1% decline, and Japan\u2019s Nikkei losing 0.6%.

Azmy, an Egyptian woman living in Dubai, has spent two-and-a-half years working with Invest Hong Kong to attract FDI from the UAE into the Asian city. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>We sat down with her for My Morning Routine, which each week asks successful members of the business community how they start their day<\/strong>, and throws in a couple of random business questions just for fun. This month, we\u2019re throwing in a few more to find out how they adjust to Ramadan and what they look forward to in the holy month. Here are edited excerpts from our conversation:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>EnterpriseAM UAE: You\u2019re Egyptian\u2026 How did you end up working for the Hong Kong government out of Dubai? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Maha Azmy: <\/strong>I studied economics and I was in oil and gas after I graduated for a number of years. I was doing mergers and acquisitions for upstream oil and gas projects all over the world. I worked in Egypt for a few years and then I moved back to Dubai, where I worked remotely with the oil and gas company that I was working with, and I found that I want to have the structure and the routine of waking up and going to the office. I like having structure in my day and I like having a routine; anyone from my family who wants to get in touch with me, they\u2019ll probably know where I\u2019ll be and what I\u2019m doing at any given time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">A friend of mine actually came across this opening, and I decided to give it a shot, despite having previously not been involved with Hong Kong. I had an initial interview, an exam, and a panel interview with five people, and I got the job. Being an Arabic speaker, I think, was an advantage. And now, I've been doing this for two-and-a-half years.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>E: What is Invest Hong Kong\u2019s role here in the UAE? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>MA:<\/strong> Invest Hong Kong is the government department responsible for bringing in foreign direct investment into Hong Kong, so bringing in investments, creating jobs, and adding value to the city. I cover the entire GCC region, so my role is to support any FDI coming from the GCC into Hong Kong.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">Hong Kong is in a very unique position. Some people refer to it as \u201cone country, two systems\u201d \u2014 it\u2019s one country with China, but has a completely different system in terms of law. It applies common law. It has its own chief executive \u2014 similar to a president \u2014 and secretaries, like ministers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">What\u2019s amazing about being at the Dubai office at Invest Hong Kong is that Dubai and Hong Kong are very, very similar. Dubai is a financial center, and Hong Kong is the number one international financial center in Asia. Dubai is a logistics hub, and Hong Kong is a massive logistics hub as well. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">Even though I cover all sectors and Invest Hong Kong is sector-agnostic, because Hong Kong is a very small city, there are certain sectors that are of extreme importance, and some that are not necessarily of great interest or don\u2019t really fit within the specs of the city\u2026 like oil and gas or manufacturing, for example. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">So there are certain sectors that are more popular than others when it comes to attracting FDI from the region into Hong Kong. Financial services and logistics are big ones. And because of the increased interest from people, companies, and entities, from Hong Kong and Mainland China in the region here and vice versa, there\u2019s been a huge increase in business and professional service companies like auditors and lawyers [serving this corridor] as well. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>E: With all of the travel you have to do and with juggling time difference, how do you set up your mornings to ensure you stay on top of things? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>MA:<\/strong>I like to get in my workout in the morning. It sets the mood for the rest of the day, and I feel like it's a cure for so many things, whether stress, anxiety, depression, or whatever it may be. If you're not struggling with any of these things, it\u2019s just a nice boost of extra energy and good endorphins.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">I have my coffee, shower, get ready for work, and I start my day. I usually also put on some news before I get there. When I'm done with work, then I have the rest of the evening to maybe see my family. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">In Ramadan, I\u2019m not one of those people who can work out while I\u2019m fasting. I usually do an intense workout, but in Ramadan, I try to get in maybe an hour of Pilates or something that\u2019s lower impact and doesn\u2019t require me to drink lots of water. Hours at the office are shorter, so that gives me more time to spend with my family. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">I usually have iftar and then try to get our steps in for the day, usually with my sister-in-law. It\u2019s a nice change from the hectic routine outside of Ramadan where there\u2019s a lot to do and a lot of places to go. It\u2019s nice to wind down this month and focus on family and eating clean, home cooked food. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>E: How do you wind down at the end of the day? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">I usually wind down by watching true crime. Discovery ID is one of my favorite channels, and recently I\u2019ve found plenty of good stuff on TikTok. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>E: Looking ahead a few years, what are some things on your bucket list \u2014 both professional and personal \u2014 that you want to achieve? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-top:12pt;margin:0;padding-left:0;padding-bottom:12pt;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left;padding-right:0\"><strong>MA:<\/strong> I really enjoy what I\u2019m doing. I\u2019m a people person and I love meeting all these different people from all walks of life, so I\u2019d love to have bigger responsibilities here and expand both my personal and professional networks. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-top:12pt;margin:0;padding-left:0;padding-bottom:12pt;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left;padding-right:0\">Because we are a part of the government and we're based here, a lot of Hong Kong and Mainland China companies, investors, and family offices who want to come and establish a presence here \u2014 and many have shown great interest in recent years \u2014 will come to us as a first point of contact because they trust us. Even though officially it\u2019s not one of our responsibilities, I'm always very happy to connect people together. I really like that. <\/p>\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">Maha\u2019s recommendations <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-top:12pt;margin:0;padding-left:0;padding-bottom:12pt;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left;padding-right:0\"><strong>Favorite restaurants: <\/strong>I love Gaia and LPM, and outside of Ramadan, J1 is a great place to go for an earlier lunch. Sirene is one of my favorites. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-top:12pt;margin:0;padding-left:0;padding-bottom:12pt;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left;padding-right:0\"><strong>Favorite books: <\/strong>I love psychological thrillers. The one that has stuck with me recently that I\u2019ve read is Verity, and of course, The Silent Patient.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-top:12pt;margin:0;padding-left:0;padding-bottom:12pt;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left;padding-right:0\"><strong>Favorite piece of advice: <\/strong>To have thick skin. That came from my parents, specifically whenever I had problems after graduating with a mean boss or something, because it was a transition going from having things come relatively easy back at home and then running into challenges or issues later in life. It\u2019s easy to go \u201cI don\u2019t want to do this anymore.\u201d But I\u2019ve learned both professionally and personally that you definitely need to have thick skin. <\/p>\n\t<\/div><!--
