Investors attracted by emerging markets
Emerging markets are the most desired investment area among buyers of protected investments, a new study suggests.
Barclays Wealth polled over 700 of its customers to determine which types of investments they were most attracted to without putting their capital at risk.
It was found that investments in emerging tiger economies such as China and India topped the poll with 17.3 per cent of the vote.
Also popular were property with 16.1 per cent and UK equities which garnered a 14.1 per cent share.
Colin Dickie, a director at Barclays Wealth, said: "Emerging markets is clearly a key area for protected investment buyers and came out significantly ahead of a number of more mainstream investment options.
"This suggests investors want exposure to the high returns emerging markets has the potential to deliver but remain wary of the area's volatility and diversity."
He added: "Our Emerging Markets Optimiser investment is designed to auto-manage risk, giving investors a smoothed return in addition to the comfort of knowing their initial capital will be returned if held to maturity."
