GMO Head of Emerging Country Debt, Tina Vandersteel joined Meb Faber in February to discuss what the team believes may be a once-in-a-generation opportunity in emerging market local debt. Indeed, with USD overvaluation at relative extremes, EM local debt can be a powerful way to capitalize on this strong and ongoing tailwind for non-dollar assets as a supplement to both EM equities and other asset classes.
