Transition Builds Resistance in Emerging Markets

May 27, 2026 · 30 min

Show notes

Emerging markets are central to the global sustainability transition and increasingly at the forefront of innovation in sustainable finance, from debt-for-food swaps to biodiversity-linked sovereign bonds. On this week’s episode of the ESG Currents podcast, Nicolas Jaquier, a portfolio manager on the emerging markets fixed income team at Ninety One, where he co-manages the Emerging Market Sustainable Blend strategy, joins Bloomberg Intelligence’s Chris Ratti and Grace Osborne. They discuss the resilience of emerging markets through recent market shocks, the growing evidence that countries investing proactively in the transition are less exposed to oil-price volatility, and why a dynamic approach is increasingly important for investors navigating these markets. This episode was recorded on April 28.
