Julius Baer CIO Monthly – a view from the top on key market trends

Yves Bonzon, Chief Investment Officer (CIO) and Head Investment Management at Julius Baer on a his expectations for 2018.

Every decade is characterised by a different economic and investment environment. The outperformers of the previous decade are unlikely to stay at the top of the performance league tables in the next decade. Julius Baer adopts a forward-looking investment approach, structuring its asset allocation to capture returns resulting from secular trends.

At Julius Baer, we strategically position our clients' portfolios according to secular trends. As we believe that mean reversion may not happen within a useful time frame, our Secular Outlook provides useful guidance when combining the risk-return expectations of asset classes into a meaningful portfolio.

In our annual Secular Outlook process, we identify key macroeconomic and capital market trends, as well as key risk factors for the next five years.
