Navin Saigal: Hi everyone, welcome to the BlackRock Investment Forum. Listen to my fellow presenters here at the forum to hear what they have to say about the opportunities that lie ahead.

Alex Brazier: With resilient growth and rates coming down, it's time to seize new alpha opportunities.

Ahmed Talhaoui: Hey! In the age of AI, systematic investing is the next gen active management style. 

Stephen Gough: We think that Asia High Yield with a sanguine economic backdrop, is one of the best risk-adjusted returns for the next 12 months. 

Nikhil Mehra: Income continues to be a focus in Asia. The opportunity to build diversified, resilient income through multi-asset is (one of) the best it has been in years.

Corwin Huang: 2025 is the year for fixed income and when you think fixed income, think BlackRock.

Aarti Angara: Whether you want to create wealth or generate income, it's time for investors to tap out of cash and tap into new opportunities.

There is US$6.5 trillion in money market funds that needs to be put to work.1 Opportunities to do so span asset classes and the entire portfolio.

Hear directly from our investors, as they share their insights from AI to fixed income and what’s shaping the next wave of investing.

Our experts highlight three key areas of focus for investors

  • Equities: Identify alpha. Dispersion is high and the backdrop is ripe for skilled active managers.

  • Fixed income: Optimize yield and duration. Take advantage of the golden age of fixed income.

  • Multi-asset: Seek higher income. Identify diversification opportunities and manage risk through income.

Identify alpha

High levels of volatility and dispersion is creating a lot of noise in equities. Skilled active managers can cut through the noise to identify alpha opportunities.

Systematic and fundamental strategies can work well together, with their differentiated approach to alpha generation complementing each other and the whole portfolio.

In the age of artificial intelligence, we believe we’re entering the age of ‘Next Gen Active’.
