Investment in Brazil could be profitable, one expert has claimed, saying that increasing the amount of funds people wager on the country's stocks "makes sense".
John Lappin wrote in an article for the Financial Times that the rebalancing of growth towards emerging economies from developed ones is "the biggest economic shift in recent history".
While the investment commentator recognised that countries like Brazil include some risk, he said it would be a "shame" for British investors to plough their money into "sluggish" developed markets.
He suggested that financial advisors need to consider emerging economies as a place to bet their clients' funds, noting that people in the UK need to raise cash for their retirement.
The expert stated that a higher proportion of investments should be dedicated to developing markets, adding that if money will not be used in this way, customers should be offered an explanation.
Fund manager and partner at Alternative Asset Analysis Anthony Johnson recently said that the strength of the Brazilian property sector makes it a good investment opportunity.
Property Bond International Ltd was established in 2003 to help overseas buyers purchase Brazilian Property Investments.
