EM Fund Managers shift to high yielding exotic currencies

- Latest
16 November 2017
The once traditionally safe-haven US Dollar has suffered from a fairly disastrous 2017 so far, sinking to a twenty month low on a trade-weighted basis in September. The currency lost over 10% of its value in the first nine months of the year alone as investors dialled back expectations for Federal Reserve interest rate hikes and grew doubtful that President Donald Trump would be able to force through any form of fiscal stimulus in the US this year.
The Dollar’s fairly abrupt depreciation in the past few months has forced investors to embrace the more volatile, riskier emerging markets, of which offer considerably higher yields. As a result, there has been a fairly sizable increase in demand for exotic currencies this year, many of which are generally not as easily accessible or liquid.
Currency exposure to the likes of the Czech Koruna (CZK) has more than doubled since the final quarter of 2016, while exposure to the Uruguayan Peso (UYU), for example, quadrupled in the three months to June from the quarter previous.
Private equity inflows into emerging markets are now at their highest level since comparable records began in 2008. The MSCI Emerging Market Index has risen by over 30% since the start of the year, far outpacing growth of both the S&P 500 and Dow Jones index (Figure 1), while the iShares Emerging Market bond index has also been on a steady upward trend since the start of last year (Figure 2).

Figure 2: iShares Emerging Markets High Yield Bond Index (2016 – 2017), Ebury provides highly competitive pricing and unrivalled access to liquidity in these exotic currencies due to the volume of currencies we trade, as well as our relationships with market makers and regional banks.
