Emerging markets may be considered less risky to invest in now, compared with the past, but they face a number of headwinds.

Borrowing to tackle the pandemic has left many facing sovereign debt worries.

Additionally, China continues to be a drag on the EM investment sector, exacerbated by its zero-Covid policy.

In this special edition of the FTAdviser Podcast, sponsored by Schroders, deputy features editor Ima Jackson-Obot speaks to David Rees, senior emerging markets economist at Schroders, and Daniel Casali, chief investment strategist at Tilney Smith & Williamson, to talk about the outlook for emerging markets post-Covid and whether it is their time to shine.
