The tally, one vote per house
21 of 26 research houses agree, +1 house in 30 days. See which houses, free →
Researchers across 26 houses see emerging-market bonds, especially local-currency debt, as attractive because high nominal and real yields offer carry and room for price gains, with 21 houses for, 4 against and 1 mixed. The case rests on compelling yields, central banks seen as disciplined, and improving investor comfort with local-currency risk. The main counterargument is that persistent global inflation, rising global yields and further central bank hikes could push EM rates higher and bond prices lower.
