• EMD valuations are attractive relative to developed markets given the superior long term fundamentals

• While the market expects the US to begin the process of interest rate normalisation in 2015, disinflationary headwinds in Europe and Japan will ensure liquidity conditions remain favourable for EMD

• Policy-makers in India, Indonesia, Mexico and Brazil are likely to carry through with economic reforms in 2015

• Frontier markets offer attractive yields for lower liquidity

• The weakening trend in EM currencies over the last four years will encourage continued improvement in EM trade balances, local EM bond markets offer good diversification benefits

• EM debt has become a mainstream asset class, institutional flows remain supportive
