On the other hand, global economies have been witnessing challenges of slower growth, elevated inflation, fears of recession and rate hike cycle by central banks.
In terms of steady growth, China’s economy has also hit some breaks, pushing investors to rely on other countries for better returns. Countries such as India, Japan and South Korea have made most of the gains compared with global counterparts, especially in equity markets, the report said.
