Key Topics

In our latest episode of The Astute Investor, Scott Haslem, Chief Investment Officer at LGT Crestone and Matthew Tan, Head of Asset Allocation discusses how the new ‘multi-polar’ world is impacting our investment and portfolio decisions. More specifically, Scott and Matt discuss how we are navigating the seemingly endless geo-political developments in light of the recent Iran-Israel conflict. 

During the podcast, Matt reiterates the importance of “keeping calm under fire” by detailing how we are applying our secular outlook to our investment framework - to help us navigate through the current economic and market conditions.

Matt and Scott detail how the team are:

  • applying constraints-based methodology to focus on key macro and market-relevant signposts;
  • considering the near-term outlook through scenario-based analysis; and
  • outlining the near-term and long-term investment implications stemming from this latest Middle East conflict.

Scott and Matt then discuss our longer-term view with detail on our 6 - 12-month positioning and Tactical Asset Allocation by outlining the associated risks in the current environment and our focus on non-US equities.
