2 articles · Updated · Bloomberg · Jul 9

Summary

  • India and Indonesia are the emerging Asia bond markets Deutsche Bank’s private arm would consider buying if crude stays around $65 to $70 a barrel for about two months.
  • Jacky Tang, the division’s chief investment officer for emerging markets, said that oil at those levels would likely ease inflation and pull bond yields lower.
  • The call focuses on two Asian economies seen as especially exposed to higher energy costs, making sustained cheaper oil a key trigger for turning more constructive on their debt.
