"East Capital delivered a strong year of alpha in 2024 through rigorous bottom-up stock selection in markets like India, Taiwan, and Vietnam, and views cheap emerging markets and Eastern Europe as highly attractive options for 2025 relative to an expensive US market."
East Capital reviews 2024 as an 'alpha year' where active stock selection delivered strong relative returns. Key performance drivers included AI exposure in Taiwan (via TSMC), robust stock-picking in India, and strong alpha generation in Vietnam and Nigeria within the Global Frontier Markets fund. Despite a challenging macro environment for pure-play renewables, East Capital successfully pivoted to secondary sustainability themes like recycling and water treatment. Looking into 2025, the firm is highly constructive on emerging markets and Eastern Europe due to historically low valuations and a 14% expected EM earnings growth rate, contrasting sharply with an overvalued US market.
