Bloomberg Invest Asia

Developments in China’s economy could seriously impact not just Hong Kong – but the rest of the world. Add US-China trade tensions and uncertain global politics to the mix – and the outlook for 2019 is challenging. At Bloomberg Invest, we bring together the biggest businesses and influential institutions to help you create a blueprint for your investments in 2019.

Big money. Big ideas.

It’s one of the most vibrant international finance centers – fueled by wealth, a diverse working population, world class infrastructure and its strategic position as a gateway to China.

But what’s happening in China could seriously impact not just Hong Kong – but the rest of the world. China’s economy grew 6.6 percent last year, it’s lowest official pace in nearly 3 decades. Add US-China trade tensions and uncertain global politics to the mix – and the outlook for 2019 is challenging.

So, how should investors prepare for the year ahead? Where is it safe – and where are the best returns?

At Bloomberg Invest, we bring together the biggest businesses and influential institutions to help you create a blueprint for your investments in 2019.
