The relentless dive of crude oil prices and a global commodities slump have investors bracing for a bearish year ahead. But the recent weakening and unpredictability of the Chinese Yuan, as well as aggressive sell-offs in the mainland’s stock markets sparked fresh concerns among investors on the state of China’s economy and its rippling effect on economies across the region.
In this seminar, Mr. Manu Bhaskaran, Director, Centennial Group International, and Founding Director and Chief Executive Officer, Centennial Asia Advisors will share his perspectives on the issues facing Asian economies, including the following:
- Which of the Asian markets are likely to emerge as winners despite the bleak economic outlook in 2016?
- How will a slowdown in the Chinese economy affect Asian economies, and to what extent?
- How will rising interest rates in the US affect Southeast Asia’s ability to weather through this period of economic instability?
Speakers and Key Discussants:
Prof. Simon Tay, Chairman, SIIA
Mr. Manu Bhaskaran, Director, Centennial Group International, and Founding Director and Chief Executive Officer, Centennial Asia Advisors
