THE FOUR AMIGOS: LATIN AMERICAN EQUITY INDICES TAKE TOP PLACES IN JANUARY 2022

BOSTON, MA – 02/07/2022 – Vitaly Veksler, CEO and Portfolio Manager at Beyond Borders Investment Strategies, LLC (BBIS), shared his thoughts on the factors that may impact future performance prospects of four indices with the highest returns during January 2022. They included MSCI Brazil, MSCI Chile, MSCI Peru, and MSCI Colombia. The idea behind writing this report was to understand tailwinds, or factors that would help these indices finish on the pedestal or at least in the “Top 10” out of fifty country equity indices in the Beyond Borders Investment Strategies, LLC universe at the end of 2022, and headwinds, factors that are likely to hurt the indices’ performance. It is essential to do it because sometimes indices that won the January stage proceed to win the entire annual competition. For example, after winning the January 2021 stage, the MSCI United Arab Emirates (UAE) index won the 2021 annual competition.
