Nicolo Magni, Head of Global Banking South-East Asia & South Asia, UBS: “At UBS, we are optimistic about Equity Capital Markets across South-East Asia and South Asia improving through 2025. Pent-up demand, improving global markets and government-led initiatives in a number of countries are paving the way for a robust deal market in the year to come. The long- term trend of growth and demographics attract investors to this region and sectors such as Healthcare and Digital Infrastructure are great proxies for these mega trends. At the OneASEAN Summit 2025, our UBS analysts and invited speakers discussed about the impact of global trends on Southeast Asia and why this region continues to be a key investment destination.”
Grace Lim, Senior ASEAN and Asia economist, UBS Investment Bank Global Research: “Looking ahead, we expect private consumption to remain resilient within South-East Asian economies, and accelerate in Philippines, and government-driven investments to increase in Thailand and Malaysia. Rising Foreign Direct Investment inflows into data centers and manufacturing has aided an investment boom in South-East Asian economies. The OneASEAN 2025 Summit provided investors on-the-ground perspectives of economies in this region and illuminated bright spots for investments.”
