Description

Daniel Broby, Chartered FCSI, long-time fund manager and now at Strathclyde University, one of the great gurus on indexes and benchmarks, startled many CISI TV viewers recently when he claimed that the coming promotion of Korea from emerging developed markets status on the MSCI indices would be the ‘biggest trade ever,’ with implications across the investment sphere.

Milena Makhmutova-Boutant, Head of Markets Infrastructure at AIFC Business Connect in Kazakhstan will be looking at that market's bold ambitions for the journey to emerging market status.
