Think Asia. Think Income.

Income works smarter when layered. Just like kueh, resilient income portfolios are built in layers. Drawing income from different geographies and sources can help provide greater diversification to portfolios.

Asia’s positive macro environment, strong earnings momentum and a rising focus on shareholder returns provide a robust and sustainable foundation to deliver income.

At Eastspring Investments, our strength as an active manager lies in knowing where to look. Our active Asia strategies combine deep local insights and bottom-up research, and the agility to manage risk in all market situations.
