Ralph Layman, President and Chief Investment Officer of Public Equities at GE Asset Management, discusses his approach to investing in emerging markets for the GE U.S. Pension Plan in the June issue of Institutional Investor magazine. This feature article from a special report on emerging markets looks at how investors are rethinking their approach to this dynamic asset class.
“We see the developed world as needing to save more and consume less,” Layman says. “It’s the opposite in the emerging markets. As consumers start to consume more, whether in health care, education or retail, regional and localized services will be great growth vehicles.”
For more than a decade, institutional investors have increasingly sought broad commodities exposure to improve portfolio diversification, help protect against unexpected inflation, and participate in the bullish long-term outlook for the asset class. To gain exposure to the asset class, some institutional investors are moving toward active management for their commodity allocations. In this paper, GE Asset Management’s commodities investment team, which has been actively managing commodities since 2006, examines how actively managed commodity strategies can potentially allow managers to fully exploit individual commodities markets on an opportunistic basis. Risk considerations for commodity investors are also discussed.
In this interview with Ticker.com, Dave Carlson, GEAM’s Co-Chief Investment Officer – U.S. Equities, explains his approach to investing as portfolio manager for the GE Premier Growth Equity Fund.
