Asia excluding Japan is home to more than half the world's population, with rapidly urbanising economies in China, India, South Korea, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia driving consumption and investment at a scale with no historical precedent. The region spans the full spectrum of economic development — from ultra-modern financial centres like Singapore and Hong Kong to frontier markets like Vietnam and Sri Lanka — offering investors a uniquely diverse set of risk and return profiles within a single geographic allocation. Asia ex-Japan is projected to account for over 50% of global GDP by 2040, up from roughly 35% today.
