‘Emerging Opportunities’ is the only show on TV or radio dedicated to global emerging and frontier markets. Each Monday at 4.30 pm Juliette Foster is joined as co-presenter by emerging markets expert Gavin Serkin, formerly Emerging Markets Editor-at-Large at Bloomberg, and together they explore the investment opportunities which mainstream investors may think too risky. This is a show to enjoy - whether you're a professional investor or an armchair traveller curious to know which countries are on the up-and-up and which are headed for crisis.
We will bring you features about the countries in our spotlight, putting you in the heart of the action and allowing you to hear and experience emerging markets first hand. In this way, we explore the political, economic and financial landscape before challenging the best-performing investors and most accurate analysts to explain their investment styles.
‘Emerging Opportunities’ has Gavin Serkin at the heart of the show, and with his expertise we aim to get you investing and making money in far-flung places, and we will keep you up to date with what’s coming next around the emerging world. Better still, it will tell you where to avoid and the places you need to be. From China to Latin America, Russia to Africa, we bring the world together in a way that's as exciting as the places ready to be explored. Join us every other Monday at 4.30 pm live and catch up afterwards on the iPhone App Listen Again, podcast and Audioboom.
