Baillie Gifford’s EM strategy counts on India, LatAm, Indonesia

India’s growth trajectory could potentially eclipse China’s, given its focus on the service sector rather than manufacturing. At its European Media Forum on Friday, Edinburgh-based Baillie Gifford also acknowledged burgeoning opportunities in Latin America and Indonesia, particularly due to the increasing connectivity and the unfolding global energy transition.
