"UOB Asset Management advises investors to stay neutral and highly diversified for Q3 2025, underweighting US equities in favor of European and Asian markets while holding safe-havens like gold and investment-grade EM bonds."
Executive Summary
UOB Asset Management’s Third Quarter 2025 Strategy outlines a cautious, highly diversified approach tailored to an environment of significant macro uncertainty. Facing three equally likely economic scenarios (growth, recession, or stagflation), UOBAM recommends a strategically neutral stance between equities and fixed income. The firm is shifting its equity focus away from the US due to stretched valuations, policy unpredictability, and high concentration. Instead, it overweights European and Asian equities (particularly China, Malaysia, and the Philippines), while remaining underweight on Taiwan, South Korea, and India. In fixed income, the firm remains neutral on developed market credit and duration, favoring emerging market investment-grade sovereigns. Within commodities, gold remains a structurally favored overweight due to central bank diversification and safe-haven demand.
