{{label}}Vaccine optimism has fueled expectations of a synchronized global GDP reacceleration in 2021. Furthermore, policymakers in developed economies have indicated that they will remain accommodative for the foreseeable three to four years with easy monetary and fiscal policies at least until global outputs and activities return to pre-Covid trend.
As such, 2021 is set to continue into the expansion phase of the business cycle, plowing through the year with an expectation for strong equity returns amid an environment characterized by the acceleration in economic growth, unabated policy support, negative real interest rates and excess liquidity, which should propel equities to outperform bonds.
Beyond 2021, fading stimulus in 2022 & slightly lower potential growth than before Covid-19 will see global economies returning to normalization (blue line).
Early cycle recovery should benefit cyclicals the most – including sectors such as Industrials, Consumer Discretionary, Materials, and some Financials. Those that were most impacted by the Covid-19 restrictions should return to favor, narrowing the performance gap against “Covid-winners” (Eg: Technology and eCommerce). However this value-rotation narrative may not persist as the excess liquidity in the system may once again see investors focusing towards growth stocks.
Thus far, China has recovered more rapidly than other leading economies. The different policies and pace of economic recovery will see global economies returning to pre-Covid GDP at different pace. Selective Asia markets should benefit from the expected easing of geopolitical tensions, the chase for yield and return by developed market investors, and the unleashing of precautionary liquidity (see chart below).

The pandemic remains a major source of risk to the economy and some form of social distancing measures is expected to remain in place. In addition, President-elect Biden will enter the White House facing one of the most challenging geopolitical backdrop in decades.
With risks abound amidst an expected economic expansion cycle, it is crucial to:
Strategies that are carefully constructed to align long-term and sustainable themes, managed by best-in-class asset managers with proven expertise and capabilities will prove useful to navigate the road ahead.
Over in AIA, we encourage long-term value creation by taking an active role in portfolio management as well as applying professional stewardship and oversight in the partnership with external managers (who have established track record of delivering performance over long term).

AIA Singapore, in partnership with AIA Investment Management, have curated bespoke wealth solutions, AIA Platinum Wealth Elite and AIA Platinum Retirement Elite. These solutions are designed to suit your goals and risk preference, while providing the flexibility to adapt to changing aspirations and circumstances, optimizing long-term returns and financial stability to meet the different milestones in life (Eg: Retirement and Legacy needs).
This publication is for your information only and does not have regard to the specific investment objectives, financial situation and particular needs of any persons. It is intended only to be a simplified description of the product features applicable to these plans and is not exhaustive.
AIA Platinum Wealth Elite and AIA Platinum Retirement Elite are investment-linked insurance policies which invest in investment-linked policy (ILP) sub-fund(s). Investments in these plans are subject to investment risk including the possible loss of the principal amount invested. The performance of the ILP sub-fund(s) is not guaranteed and the value of the units in the ILP sub-fund(s) and the income accruing to the units, if any, may fall or rise. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of the future performance of the ILP sub-fund(s).
Investment risks include foreign exchange risks for US$ denominated policies, as such the Singapore dollar return will depend on prevailing exchange rate which may be highly volatile.
These insurance plans are underwritten by AIA Singapore Private Limited (Reg. No. 201106386R) (“AIA”). All insurance applications are subjected to AIA’s underwriting and acceptance. This publication is not a contract of insurance. The precise terms and conditions of these plans, including exclusions whereby the benefits under your policy may not be paid out, are specified in the policy contract. You are advised to read the policy contract.
The actual Policy Value will depend on the actual performance of the policy as well as any alterations such as variation in the Insured Amount or premium, such as premium holiday or partial withdrawals. There is a possibility that the Policy Value will fall to zero and in this case, policyholder can avoid the policy lapsing by topping up additional premium.
You should seek advice from a qualified advisor and read the product summary and product highlights sheet(s) before deciding whether the product is suitable for you. A product summary and product highlights sheet(s) relating to the ILP sub-fund(s) are available and may be obtained from your AIA Financial Services Consultant or Insurance Representative. A potential investor should read the product summary and product highlights sheet(s) before deciding whether to subscribe for the ILP sub-fund(s).
As buying a life insurance policy is a long-term commitment, an early termination of the policy usually involves high costs and the surrender value, if any, that is payable to you may be zero or less than the total premium paid. You should consider carefully before terminating the policy or switching to a new one as there may be disadvantages in doing so. The new policy may cost more or have fewer benefits at the same cost.

Global interest rates have been on the decline for years as inflation moderates alongside increasing global savings. Taking the US Federal Reserve rate as an example, the Fed rate has been declining since the high of nearly 20% during the 80’s to today’s low of nearly zero. With the current Covid-19 pandemic, governments and central banks across the world have undertaken massive, unprecedented stimulus policies to help economics recover. Looking ahead, interest rates will likely remain low for a while as guided by Fed and the other major central banks.

Current low interest rate environment poses a challenge for investors seeking steady income with traditional fixed income yields dropping lower. As a result, generating healthy and regular level of income through traditional* sources will prove harder moving forward (as seen in diagram below). Thus, it is important to look wider for complementary* sources of income to supplement existing means.
*Traditional income sources refer to dividends/income derived from asset classes like equities and bonds. Complementary income sources refer to dividend/income derived from alternate sources like covered call options, to help balance the trade-off between income, returns and risk.
Investors will therefore be confronted with today’s income challenge of “Low for longer” and a “New Norm” whereby there is an increasing need to adopt the right investment strategy to manage the overall portfolio risk while adding new income sources to complement existing ones.

To help customer build and generate regular income in the long run, AIA Singapore partnered AIA Investments in September 2020 to curate the AIA Global Dynamic Income Fund. It is available for your selection only via AIA Invest Easy, an Investment-Linked Plan. Managed by AIA Investment Management and backed by the expertise of world class asset managers, with the aim to distribute regular income and total returns over the long-term, through a variety of attractive income-generating asset classes.

The ILP Sub-Fund aims to distribute dividends of 4 to 5% p.a. on a quarterly basis. Investors should take note that dividend distributions could change according to prevailing market conditions. Both capital and dividend distributions are not guaranteed. Dividend rate does not represent the overall return of the fund, and a high distribution yield does not imply a positive or high return on the total investments. Dividend rate will be declared in S$ per unit and the resulting % dividend yield p.a. is calculated based on (Dividend rate/Ex-Date NAV)*(4*100). AIA Singapore will review dividend distribution periodically, and has the sole discretion to determine the dividend rate and frequency of the distribution.
AIA Singapore intends to distribute dividends from the income and/or net realised gains of the ILP Sub-Fund, and AIA Singapore maintains the discretion to distribute dividends out of capital. Investors should be aware that when dividend distributions are made out of the capital, it may lead to a reduction in investor’s original investment and may also result in reduced future returns to the investor.
When dividend distributions are declared and paid out with respect to the ILP Sub-Fund, the net assets of the ILP Sub-Fund will reduce by an amount equivalent to the distributions declared. This will be reflected as a reduction in the unit price.
Invest a minimum of S$12,000 in cashor via Supplementary Retirement Scheme (SRS) through the AIA Invest Easy plan. Speak to your AIA Financial Services Consultant/Insurance Representative or find out more at aia.com.sg/investeasy

Markets have continued to be volatile as the coronavirus continues to bite hard. What had previously been an Asian-centric outbreak is now a global pandemic. During this period of elevated volatility, it is important to remind ourselves of these three key points.
Market volatility is a natural part of investing and is the result of investors (over) reacting to economic, political and corporate change. Being mentally prepared for episodes of volatility is key for long-term investors – it helps us to react rationally, remain focused on our goals and even capture rare opportunities.
Those who remain invested typically benefit from the long-term uptrend in stock markets. When investors try to time the market and stop-and-start their investments, they can run the risk of denting future returns by missing the best recovery days in the market and attractive buying opportunities that become available during periods of pessimism. Missing out on just five of the best performance days in the market can have a significant impact on longer-term returns.
When volatility increases, the flexibility of active investing can be especially rewarding compared to the rigid allocations of passive investments. In particular, volatility can introduce opportunities for active stock-pickers, especially during times of market overreaction. Remember that the stocks you do not own in a fund can be as important as the ones you do own. There are companies in every stock market that are poorly managed or which suffer from fundamentally difficult outlooks; active managers can avoid these stocks.

Global markets have been in expansion for slightly more than a decade after the Global Financial Crisis. Economic outlook has improved since the later part of 2019, and is expected to remain modest with bouts of uncertainties in 2020. Coupled with loose monetary policy, we should see risk appetite improving with equities outperforming bonds in the first half of 2020.
2020 will continue to be a year of uncertainties and volatility; ranging from global trade war, geopolitical tensions and the US election.
• No doubt, the US/China trade war issue has developed positively with a “Phase one” trade deal expected mid-Jan, we cannot however discount an escalation in trade tensions.
• Geopolitical tensions will continue to plague investors’ sentiments.
• US Presidential election in November 2020 will continue to be the wildcard.
• Misalignments between market expectations against Central Banks policies may evoke financial instability.
Risk remains the constant but we should not lose sleep over it. Staying invested and diversification is key in current environment where valuations are no longer as attractive. To achieve this, it is important to leverage capabilities of best in-class asset managers to stay ahead of the game.
A potential solution for consideration is the Platinum Wealth Elite (PWE) launched in 2019. This bespoke wealth solution is a strategic initiative by AIA which offers protection and accelerate one’s wealth through our investment propositions of Stewardship, Global Expertise and Long-term view, while providing flexibility to meet multiple long-term goals during the different milestones in life (For example: Retirement and Legacy needs).
AIA, the world’s largest life insurer manages over USD 195 billion of asset. Our scale enables us to partner with the world’s finest asset managers and apply professional oversight along the journey.
To support your long-term wealth goals, we work with the right asset managers who are aligned with our approach to deliver consistent long-term results. We differentiate ourselves through our commitment towards active portfolio management, utilizing optimal asset allocation strategies to help you reach your wealth goals.
PWE provides access to best in-class global institutional asset managers, making available investment opportunities not readily accessible to retail investors.
