Amit is clearly incredibly passionate about emerging markets and we learned a lot about finding your investable universe, cutting out the noise and honing in on long-term opportunities. The best company he's ever seen is one we weren't expecting either...Emerging markets (EM) have been growing rapidly in recent years. In fact, they now contribute over 50% of global growth and are expected to contribute over 60% by 2025.1 Once dominated by agriculture and cheap manufacturing, EM countries are today home to some of the world’s fastest-growing economies and most innovative companies. Some of the largest e-commerce, gaming, social media and hardware manufacturers reside in emerging markets.Books mentioned in this episode:The Essays of Warren Buffett - Lawrence A.
