Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management CIO View December 2015

Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management CIO View December 2015Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management CIO View December 2015

The views that our Chief Investment Officer Stefan Kreuzkamp expresses in the December issue of the new CIO View carry a lot of weight: He and his colleagues at Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management manage client assets totaling 1.09 trillion euros (as of September 30, 2015).

His nine positions are:

•    The U.S. Federal Reserve Board wants to end its ultra-expansionary monetary policy.
•    Monetary policy in Japan and the Eurozone will remain accommodative. China follows suit.
•    Inflation will pick up again in Europe in 2016.
•    U.S. dollar to benefit from monetary-policy divergence.
•    Return outlook for equities and bonds falls short of current year.
•    High valuations could contribute to volatility in equity markets.
•    Latin American stock exchanges remain weak.
•    Real estate is still one of the most attractive asset classes.
•    Asset allocation of our balanced model portfolio for clients based in Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA):
Fixed income: 46%, Equities: 43%, Alternatives: 10%, Commodities: 1%
