Amundi

[#Tokenization] | A new milestone in the digitalization of asset management in Europe.   Amundi has developed an approach to tokenized finance to enable Institutional clients to access a secure execution and custody offering for their digital assets.   Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) and the public Ethereum blockchain provide transparent custody of fund units as well as full traceability of transactions.   The use of blockchain technology brings several benefits for investors and fund unit distributors: instant order execution, expanded distribution to new generations of investors, and 24/7 operability.   This development is carried out in partnership with CACEIS, a major player in asset servicing in Europe and one of the European leaders in transfer agent activities.

🌍 [#COP30] | Marking ten years of the Paris Agreement, COP30 in Belem disappointed many, but confirmed that even if under stress the Paris machinery remains functional. Despite an outcome that fell short of expectations, updated NDCs now cover over 70% of global emissions, and investments in renewables are still double those of fossil fuels since last year.   Belém clarified the trajectory for the decade ahead; where governance will be more fragmented, implementation-driven, and heavily reliant on private capital. Scaling climate and nature finance will require savvy allocation, risk factor management, and disciplined use of credible transition plans to convert ambition into real economy outcomes.   For investors, expectations remain clear despite political uncertainty: translating these signals into capital allocations across mitigation, adaptation, nature and resilience — via large-scale instruments and de risking structures, will be decisive.   👉Explore our latest paper to uncover in-depth insights from COP discussions and their consequences for investors: https://lnkd.in/eDAqQEKs

🗓️ [#Event] | We were pleased to host at our Paris headquarters the 2025 edition of the Amundi Institutional CIO Program as part of our Knowledge Transfer initiative conceived to provide clients with the tools and insights to navigate today’s complex market environment.   Chaired by Vincent Mortier, Group CIO and Jean-Jacques Barbéris, Head of Institutional and Corporate Clients Division, ESG Supervisor, the event gathered leading Amundi experts alongside CEOs, CIOs and senior executives from major global institutions including Central Banks, Sovereigns and Pension Funds.   The program was structured around two main themes: • Investing in a new multipolar world • Building resilient portfolios with performance potential   Additional discussions covered geopolitics’ impact on investment decisions, deploying liquidity as a tactical lever in shifting markets, smart diversifiers to boost portfolio resilience, and an overview of structural pillars for Emerging Markets allocations.   Designed to encourage open dialogue between participating institutions and Amundi, the program also served as a platform for exchanging views and peer-to-peer interaction.

🌍 [#Outlook2026] | Global growth is set to moderate, but #AI-related investment and policy support should extend the cycle. We are entering a regime of controlled disorder, where there are structural risks but also new opportunities. US growth should experience a shallow slowdown in the coming quarters. We expect the Fed to cut twice in the first half of 2026, to 3.25% and the dollar to weaken, but the currency’s journey will not be linear. Europe’s outlook is supported by resilient domestic demand, supportive monetary policy, and the progressive implementation of reforms. These initiatives aim to strengthen the macro-financial system and channel private investment toward sectors that are of strategic importance in the medium term. #EmergingMarkets offer opportunities. Their growth will likely stabilise but keep outpacing that of developed economies. Structural forces are also at play and include geopolitical realignment, supply-chain reconfiguration and an intensifying technological race, in which Asia stands out. Our stance: moderately pro-risk, globally diversified, and prepared for volatility. 👉To learn more about rebalancing for resilience, visit: https://lnkd.in/ee4qZhEx
