Six themes are reshaping the global economic landscape;
agriculture, infrastructure, energy, eco-technology, commodities
and emerging wealth. At the heart of every one, there’s a BRIC
story. Powerful dynamics within the Brazilian, Russian, Indian and
Chinese economies are shaping these themes.

Allianz RCM BRIC Stars Fund targets opportunities created by these themes by investing in companies in the BRIC economies and other emerging markets.

Agriculture

As the domestic prosperity of the BRIC nations rises, their huge population is effectively demanding an improved place at the dinner table. Worldwide, demand for agricultural products is growing at more than double the rate of supply.

Infrastructure

All of the BRIC nations aspire to world-class economies and so require world-class infrastructure. The BRICs will see trillions of US Dollars spent on infrastructure in the next decade.

Energy

Despite worldwide energy demand, the production of oil may have already peaked and, with the growing power of the BRICs, it’s now a question of which country wants to pay the most to secure its energy requirements.

Eco-technology

The growing worldwide draw on energy resources, fuelled by BRICs, makes ecotechnology an increasingly popular and cost-effective alternative.

Commodities

The demand for many commodities already exceeds supply – and the BRICs are exporters of many.

Emerging wealth

The rising prosperity of the BRIC populations is creating entire new markets to drive global economic growth.
