Pendal profile: Meet Australian equities analyst and portfolio manager Elise McKay
AUSTRALIAN equities have the potential to offer investors a compelling trio of benefits, argues analyst and portfolio manager Elise McKay.

Pendal profile: Meet our small-cap portfolio managers Lewis Edgley and Patrick Teodorowski
So far in 2025, the ASX Small Ordinaries Index has outperformed the ASX 200.
That dosen’t surprise Pendal’s small-cap PMs Lewis Edgley and Patrick Teodorowski, who expect smalls to bounce back as rates fall.
“We’ve seen in previous cycles when rates have started to be cut, that it tends to act as a positive catalyst for small caps,” says Patrick in a new Pendal video.
Patrick points to three diversification factors that experienced small-cap managers can use to their advantage:
1. The “sheer number of investable opportunities”, through which the team searches for mispriced opportunities
2. Wide sectoral breadth, which offers “money-making opportunities regardless of what the economy is doing”
3. And diversity of quality, which demands expertise and experience in finding the best businesses and avoiding the bad ones.

Emerging markets: Why Korea requires caution despite strong recent performance
“We are now in a global environment that looks like a broad bull market in emerging market assets,” writes Pendal’s EM team in its latest monthly article.
However, investors still need to be picky at the country level, the team argues. Korea is an example.
“Historically in these environments, individual emerging markets often experience violent short-term, up-and-down moves as part of a trend of the broader asset class moving higher.
“That’s definitely what it looks like in Korea.
“The second quarter saw MSCI Korea rise 32.7% in USD terms, with the Korean Won’s 8.9% move up against the US Dollar contributing significantly.”
But the stronger Won is a drag on exporters – the backbone of the Korean economy. Meanwhile, first-quarter GDP growth was stagnant and local politics remains unpredictable.
While Pendal’s EM team holds some of the best-performing Korean stocks, overall, it sees more opportunity in Brazil, Mexico and South Africa.
