Key takeaways:

  • Geopolitical realignment, tariff threats, and diverging global central bank policy have caused market turbulence. European Investors have dialled down equity risk.
  • Having ridden the tech titans’ wave, European investors have started to increase exposure to underdog small-caps, which could be gearing up for a comeback.
  • European investors swapped cash for bonds in a strategic move towards quality and as a way to lock in higher rates for longer.

In this dynamic financial environment, it’s crucial to stay ahead and understand allocation shifts. Thanks to the Janus Henderson Edge analytics platform, we’re able to uncover investment trends to help inform your decision-making.

Focusing on equities, fixed income, and alternative/implementation strategies, Portfolio Panorama highlights how client approaches to constructing portfolios have evolved and the asset allocation implications.
