Analyst advises investors to tap into private markets for corporate growth

DBS also found further upside for gold investment.

One of Singapore’s top banks said private markets are increasingly becoming an epicentre of corporate growth amidst the ongoing economic headwinds in the second half of 2023.

In a report, DBS said private markets are now more accessible as the industry recognises an imperative to embrace the private wealth segment.

“It is an opportune time for investors to tap into private markets for exposure to corporate growth,” said DBS.

In the past quarter, there has been a “double-barrelled positive impact on gold, skewing its return to the upside.”

It added that the heightened volatility stoked short-medium term inflows whilst rising growth risks and sticky inflation heightened the long-term demand outlook for gold as a safe haven asset.

Amidst the volatility in gold prices, DBS found tailwinds for gold that have yet to be priced in amongst which are hurdles in the US Commercial Real Estate Sector, flows from gold ETFs and futures, and rising central bank buying as geopolitical tension continues to escalate.
